Common errors

error ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'always_updates' ↓

cause Wrong import path: the package is installed as 'always-updates' but import uses underscore.

fix

Install with 'pip install always-updates' and import as 'always_updates'.

error AttributeError: module 'always_updates' has no attribute 'always_check' ↓

cause always_check was removed in v150.

fix

Use update_system(check_only=True) instead.

breaking In v150, the function always_check was removed; use update_system with check_only=True. ↓

fix Replace always_check() with update_system(check_only=True).

gotcha update_system with check_only=False requires root privileges on Linux; otherwise it raises PermissionError. ↓

fix Run with sudo or as admin.

deprecated The 'force' parameter in update_system is deprecated since v140 and will be removed. ↓

fix Remove the force parameter; use update_system() without it.
