Well, all of that is repairable in priciple. I managed to clean my install up quite well and got all those updates to run - and some of the people on the discord are currently working (with quite some success) on a way to get mainline Klipper on the machine: GitHub - Rappetor/Sovol-SV08-Mainline: Getting the Sovol SV08 onto mainline Klipper
I also created an issue on github asking Sovol to have a look at a mainline install, but our research as shown quite clearly that absolutely nobody at Sovol has a clue about git, let alone about github. I don’t expect that anybody even reads those issues, sadly. Evaluate if baseline Klipper can be used instead of a modified version · Issue #11 · Sovol3d/SV08 · GitHub
