[RESOLVED]
Downgrading (using ha core update --version=2024.12.4) and re-upgrading fixed the issue.

[ORIGINAL]
After updating to 2024.15.5, several integrations now fail on load, cloud is one of them.

There is a single exception common to them all:

Setup failed for 'cloud': Unable to import component: cannot import name 'RbnfEngine' from 'unicode_rbnf' (/usr/local/lib/python3.13/site-packages/unicode_rbnf/__init__.py)
Setup failed for 'conversation': Unable to import component: cannot import name 'RbnfEngine' from 'unicode_rbnf' (...)
Setup failed for custom integration 'ttlock': Unable to import component: cannot import name 'RbnfEngine' from 'unicode_rbnf' (...)
Setup failed for 'mobile_app': Unable to import component: cannot import name 'RbnfEngine' from 'unicode_rbnf' (...)

I have attached all the screenshots of each failed integration's log segment. I'm hoping this looks familiair to someone and can point me in the right direction,

Side notes:

I am a software dev, lots of docker (and hassos experience maybe 5-6 years now? I don't want to wreck my system that is 4,000 miles away, I'm accessing it over site-to-site VPN.
I can attach the exact stacktraces if needed, but I'm reserving this action until I have a general direction to go in.
I do have a couple items in configuration.yaml, but they're just standard location things

After reading the release notes, I am highly suspicious of the upgrade to python https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2024/12/04/release-202412/#weve-upgraded-to-python-313.. but it has been fine until 2024.12.5

I checked for /usr/local/lib/python3.13/ in core, but it is empty.. however I'm not sure if this is supposed to be on the host or in the core container.

How are you running HA?

valid timber Dec 30, 2024, 5:29 PM

#

On an ODROID

#

but how

valid timber Dec 30, 2024, 5:30 PM

#

all hardware based, the Odroids have been the best rollout for me for the past 5ish years

#

Home Assistant OS, with eMMC and 1TB disk

#

Like this https://www.home-assistant.io/installation/odroid/

#

I should just try the upgrade again, maybe something went wrong. I was able to fix things by downgrading with ha core update --version=2024.12.4 , so it fails a 2nd time I have a safe remote fallback option.

#

Resolved! Something must have went wrong on that first update. Downgrading and upgrading again resolved it.
