Hey guys. 
I’m still struggling with this error, no Homekit for a long time now (my wife isn’t amused). But to be honest, I’m not looking forward to setting up everything from scratch again.
Because I’m using an SSD with my Pi and read the following in this thread:
One thing you need to keep track off is the difference in kernel versions between the boot code on the SD card and the file system on the USB drive when you apt-get upgrade. The original kernel software on the SD card may get out of synchronization with the newer boot files on the DOS partition. One way to fix that is to revert back to the SD card and also update that file system with apt-get upgrade.
…I did just that - unfortunately without any progress.
So just a couple of minutes ago I installed pimatic-ble (for my Mi-Flora sensor), and saw an error that looks quite similar to the one before:

Is there any chance you have an idea what might be the reason for this? Seems to be independent of the plugin (although I’m not having any problems at all with other plugins). Still hoping this can be fixed. 
Thanks, Sebastian
