#Error upgrading 4.23 to 5.12-b3

From a mostly clean 4.23 linux (debian trixie headless) system originally installed using the default (npm) method:

curl -fsSL --proto '=https' --tlsv1.2 https://openclaw.ai/install.sh | bash -s -- --git --version v2026.5.12-beta.3

Errors out on pnpm version? Not entirely sure. Either the installer should handle this or it should be documented better:

  Because Threads wasn't the answer either.

@cyan light just pinging you from here in case you're interesting in this. I don't know when it started happening, but I saw it on a 5.10-beta Sunday, so I assume it's been there a couple days.

Hmm. This is the official installer? Interesting

Rerunning with --verbose gives more info:

@cyan light appears to not be a pnpm error, but an error with "shared-ini-file-loader"
