#1 Error parsing new user.js

When I try to run the update I get the following output:

After updating it manually I get the following output

Thanks for reporting this.

Privacy-Handbuch changed the layout of the user.js fundamentally. This broke the version parsing in the updater because it was somewhat dependent on the layout. I already had this fixed in the 1.5 branch but that's not ready for release. I want to get some features in there which takes longer than expected.

Version 1.4.3 is a bugfix release for this issue which removes the dependency on the layout (it's a tiny bit more to do for the computer now).
