I think that the problem is probably the missing free space.

The main problem is that microG GmsCore is growing a lot recently but the thing that grow much is not the microG GmsCore itself but mainly the Maps libray included inside it.

I have to find a way to fix the problem but this need some time. In the meanwhile you could try to manually remove some apps that you don't need from the system partition.

Can confirm that there is not enough free space on the system partition. But enough on the product.

I successfully created a sideload zip that installs f-droid, aurora and gmsCore, based on org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged.ota_2130.zip. I mount /dev/block/mapper/product_[ab] and copy files there.

But I faced another problem: the update doesn't survives ota update. Moreover neither org.fdroid.fdroid.privileged.ota_2130.zip nor Magisk-v26.1.zip survives ota and needs to be reinstalled.

Using addon.d for preserve apps in the product partition is an additional complication and not all ROMs support it since it was introduced later. I have never looked at it and I don't have time currently but I will surely support it in the future.

@532910 Could you please mount the system partition, run these commands and post the results?

ls -la /mnt/system/system/priv-app
ls -la /mnt/system/system/app

Maybe I can find some unnecessary Google apps that can be removed to reduce the problem until there is a better fix.

I "fixed" the issue installing all on /product: https://github.com/532910/microg-fdroid-aurora

[532910]

About updates: only OTA updates are survived. Trying to do Local update will remove installed apps.

[ale5000-git]

I will do these things:

• [x] Display the exact error in case of failure
• [x] Reduce general microG GmsCore size: https://github.com/microg/GmsCore/pull/2000 (76,3 MB => 35,8 MB)
• [x] Install only the strictly required libraries to reduce size on the system partition
• [x] Rollback optional apps to reclaim free space if needed
• [ ] Remove more unneded Google apps
• [ ] Install on product partition if there isn't enough space on the system partition

The last point will come later since it is the most complicated.

[ale5000-git]

This new code should alleviate the problem on some devices:
