I think manual patching is required. Is this repo dead? Because no updates.

I had to do a fresh install, then I tried to do it one by one, and it worked. Now, installing multiple ones, works.
Maybe upon updating waydroid it caused the issues. Will see, trying to be wary of it now.

I encountered the same issue on Arch Linux. The root cause is that waydroid container stop now outputs logs (e.g., [11:03:07] Stopping container) to stderr even when it exits successfully (exit code 0).

The script's tools/helper.py incorrectly treats any output in stderr as a fatal error, ignoring the successful return code.

Fix:
Modify waydroid_script/tools/helper.py.
Find the run function (around line 48) and change the check condition:

# Old code (causes crash):
# if result.stderr:

# New code (fixes the issue):
if result.returncode != 0 and result.stderr:

The script's `tools/helper.py` incorrectly treats *any* output in stderr as a fatal error, ignoring the successful return code. **Fix:** Modify `waydroid_script/tools/helper.py`. Find the `run` function (around line 48) and change the check condition: ```python # Old code (causes crash): # if result.stderr: # New code (fixes the issue): if result.returncode != 0 and result.stderr:
