German broken on legacy extension.
Tried installing legacy to import known words from Anki. Works perfectly for Japanese.
But for German specifically(tested a few others, doesn't seem to have a problem), it gets stuck sometimes when trying to change language in the settings page. And when trying to do default install for it doesn't start(attached image).
For Importing german words, selected everything like I did for japanese, and it just doesn't import anything.

Oh also, tried on different chrome profile, did fresh reinstall, and restarted pc, in case any of these solved it.

@Yukinori @変 I'll log this issue
@変 So you also just tried installing fresh and that's when you were unable to get it to load? I've had german on legacy for a while and mine works fine
sensitive-blue•14mo ago
Yep, I managed to find crx
0.9.38.2
which works complitelly fine, but as soon as chrome updates it to 0.9.39.3
- German just stops working
Also, there was a bug when I was trying to parse a page with a hotkey on a 0.9.39.3
, every word on a site was replaced with undefined
, I will try to get it again to show youquickest-silver•14mo ago
sure that'd be great
ty for the info

Target: German
` to parse
Change target
Result:
Unchecked runtime.lastError: A listener indicated an asynchronous response by returning true, but the message channel closed before a response was received
13k times in a console + screenshot
UPD: on second time it gave me only 300 logs and changed a part of the page
UPD2: I can't get this on the 3rd time :/

German as a target
` a few times
Waited a few minutes
My browser just froze
Changed target to
Disabled
Watching how page quite rappidly becomes a home of undefined, which was funny
sensitive-blue•14mo ago
I assume changing target breaks some sort of infinite promise-loop and tries to apply a result of parsing which doesn't exists?

Looks like the new release dropped overnight, and seems to have somehow borked German. This one https://discord.com/channels/752293144917180496/1203962313150042132/1234785980993503342
Investigating, may possibly do a rollback
rival-black•14mo ago

Does the legacy extension work for you?
Mine is not creating cards.
rival-black•14mo ago
nope cant parse or make cards with legacy
automatic-azure•14mo ago
Are you also a German user?
wise-white•14mo ago
No, I am learning English.
rival-black•14mo ago
Same here, had to reinstall Windows, and now the german dictionary won't install. This is in addition to not being able to add definitions to any cards.

for Anki or for MM @Joel Alvarez @jake
Can you check the version of the extension you are on and paste it here.
wise-white•14mo ago
for MM, it works for me now. It didn't work yesterday, though.
extended-yellow•14mo ago
I see, ok, the definition issue is fixed in the pending update, and after that pending update is released we have a fix for German. I will make an announcement.
Nm, Saxon has already made the announcement
