Gramps 6.0.0 beta1 gets an error from the GraphView addon. The error is pasted at the bottom of this post. The GraphView addon works in the current Gramps 5.2.4 flatpak from flathub, so the difference in the flatpak for this error is that the Gramps source changed to 6.0.0-beta1 and the addition of orjson. GraphView is version 1.0.142 installed through the [Addon Manager](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_5.2_Wiki_Manual_-_Navigation#Using_the_Addon_Manager) some data from the Prerequisites Checker addon is in the “Summary” hidden block below > **Summary** > > You have Gramps 6.0.0-beta1 installed; an unreleased development version.

I’ve seen errors like that before, and I believe it was due to having the wrong Gtk version registered. ---

I forgot to reboot Gramps after installing GraphView before trying to use GraphView. It works fine after reboot, just a bad day for me. ---

GrampsAIO-6.0.0-beta1-3\_win64 I can’t install any extensions at all? All modules are displayed but after installation I get an error message saying that registration failed. Are the extensions not yet for Gramps 6? When I click on the graphical views I get the following error message: 496607: ERROR: grampsapp.py: line 188: Unhandled exception Traceback (most recent call last): File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gui\viewmanager.py”, line 968, in view\_changed self.\_\_change\_page(page\_num) File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gui\viewmanager.py”, line 984, in \_\_change\_page self.active\_page.set\_active() File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gui\views\navigationview.py”, line 151, in set\_active PageView.set\_active(self) File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gui\views\pageview.py”, line 373, in set\_active self.build\_tree() File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\plugins\view\pedigreeview.py”, line 815, in build\_tree self.rebuild\_trees(active) File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\plugins\view\pedigreeview.py”, line 994, in rebuild\_trees self.find\_tree(person, 0, 1, lst) File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\plugins\view\pedigreeview.py”, line 1725, in find\_tree alive = probably\_alive(person, self.dbstate.db) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gen\utils\alive.py”, line 1018, in probably\_alive birth, death, explain, relative = probably\_alive\_range( ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gen\utils\alive.py”, line 1099, in probably\_alive\_range return pbac.probably\_alive\_range(person) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File “C:\Program Files\GrampsAIO64-6.0.0\gramps\gen\utils\alive.py”, line 442, in probably\_alive\_range ).format( ^^^^^^^ KeyError: ‘Geburt\_min\_src’ ---
