Cannot install any packages, although i have installed package control

#1

When I search in the command palette "Package Control: ", nothing shows up, while i have package control installed.

Then I found here that you are supposed to remove package control from your ignored_packages, but it was never there.

After that I read that I should look in the console for lines starting with “Package Control” and then I should enable the debug.log by going to Preferences>Package Settings>Package Control>Settings - User and then add the setting: “debug”: true
But I can’t open the Settings - User

Settings%20-%20User
Settings - User.jpg1024×768 111 KB

So now I don’t know what to do anymore. I also tried al the other methods at the packagecontrol.io troubleshooting page, they didn’t work either. So here is my entire console.

Thank you for reading! ( I am sorry if it is to much. I just didn’t know what to paste here and what not, so i just pasted everything )

I’m having the same issue. My guess is that it has not been resolved?

I’m not sure when mine broke, but I noticed it today. I’m on Build 4143.

When I pull up the console, I’m see this:

    class PackagesInstallerThread(threading.Thread, PackageInstaller):

I’m not sure when it broke, but I tried uninstalling and re-installing. I’m surprised to see the Sublime Text 3 path still, in case that is helpful.

“Local Packages” isn’t a thing package control does and local_packages.py isn’t found in the package control repository. I suggest figuring out where “Local Packages” comes from.

Note that reinstalling Sublime Text doesn’t touch your installed plugins or settings, if you want to try ST in a clean environment I suggest using safe mode.

After several hours of trying to figure it out, https://github.com/wbond/package_control/issues/1612#issuecomment-1625070020 and symlinking against openssl@1.1’s libcrypto.dylib is what fixed it for me.
