Kobo software update causes KOReader to disappear

aalinovi · Today, 05:24 PM

I have a Kobo Libre Color which I updated last night to software version
6.0.274403(8f62d14e95,9/18/26).

For me, this update has caused KOReader to completely vanish. I've tried reinstalling but it simply installs kfmon.png in /mnt/onboard and nothing else.

Connecting my Kobo to my Mac I can see all the KOReader files are still there but to Kobo they don't exist.

Any ideas would be appreciated.

KFmon gets nuked after update yes, use NickelMenu instead (uncomment a line in .apps/nm folder, IIRC)
