Hi,

unfortunately I cannot install the Homegear component via the openhabian-config tool, getting this output:

Finally it returns to the config tool whit this info:

"There was an error or interruption during the execution of:                  │
                                 │   "20 | Optional Components"     "

Any idea what the problem is here?

Cannot tell from just this.
Read the debug guide and use debugmode=maximum in openhabian.conf to get more verbose output.

But very likely it’s because homegear is not available as packages for bookworm Linux so you’re out of luck there.
