Right after touching the nitrokey to start the update, it reconnects to the computer with a different idProduct.

note USB disconnect, device number 15 , which signals I allowed the Nitrokey to update.
After physically reconnecting the nitrokey, nitropy nk3 test runs successfully, so I presume the nitrokey isn't dead :)
Found the logs in /tmp , missing access rights to the hidraw device.

Some kind of error message about this would be nice.
The underlying error is originating from pynitrokey there is an issue for that: https://github.com/Nitrokey/nitrokey-3-firmware/issues/250
Nevertheless I keep this open as such an error should: a) not crash the nitrokey-app b) some better error reporting should be in place
this should be resolved by now - please open a new one if you see similar thing happen
