-Could not install core app bundle

-The following error message is shown during the update: "Repair warning: Could
-not install core app bundle: Could not download app <app>".
-
-This basically means that Nextcloud could not fetch the app from the appstore
-automatically. This could have multiple reasons: either you disabled the
-appstore with the config.php flag or your server could not reach the app store.
-The instance will work fine, but the features that are usually provided by this
-app are not available.
-
-Theming changes
----------------
-
-With Nextcloud 12, CSS files have been merged into one server.css so in order
