Device information (please complete the following information):

  • Device: reMarkable 2

Additional context Eeems was able to help me fix this issue and said that ddvk must have crashed while reverting. running "ls -l /usr/bin/xochitl" gave me this output "-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 0 Jan 16 14:47 /usr/bin/xochitl" and running this command "file /usr/bin/xochitl" gave me "/usr/bin/xochitl: empty".

Another user had reported that they had the device crash while uninstalling, and it crashed at removing libatomic. It's likely that this is not an issue with the ddvk-hacks package.

We had another user have the device crash part way through an update/upgrade and then lost SSH access. I have copies of the root partitions that we can investigate to see what happened.
