Hello,

I'd like to update the BIOS on the PCs in our network.
The BIOS update seems to go smoothly, but I'm getting the following errors: `

installing vjf-bios_3010_a19
CalledProcessErrorOutput: Command '"BIOS_3010_A19.exe" /S' returned non-zero exit status 3.
Output:

EWaptUnavailablePackage: Missing dependencies: vjf-bios_3010_a19`.

Could you please help me clear these errors?

Have a good day.

My crystal ball is broken. Could you post the control file and the setup.py file so we can get a clearer picture?

THANKS,

Output:
By default, the install_exe_if_needed() function accepts return codes 0 and 3010. If the return code 3 (which is not standard) still means that everything went well, then it must be added as a parameter to the function, see.

The second error message doesn't seem to be related to the other package because the two package names are different. Could there be two dependent packages for the BIOS update on the machine in question?

Sincerely,

Denis
