Missing thermal-engine binary in thermal-engine package (v0-r12) on Tachyon

Hi Particle Support,

I'm running a Tachyon device and have found that the thermal-engine.service has been failing since installation due to a missing binary.

The thermal-engine package (version 0-r12, arm64) does not include the /usr/bin/thermal-engine binary. The service unit file references this path as its ExecStart, but dpkg -L thermal-engine confirms the binary was never shipped with the package - only the systemd unit files and the thermal-engine.sh pre-start script are included.

As a result, the service fails immediately on startup with exit status 203/EXEC ("No such file or directory"). Since the package is locally installed, it can't be reinstalled from a repository, and no related update is available.

Without the thermal engine running, the device has no active thermal management, which is a concern for long-term reliability.

Could you provide either:

  • A corrected thermal-engine .deb package that includes the binary, or
  • A firmware update that resolves this?

Happy to provide any additional logs or diagnostic info if needed.

Thanks,

Same situation here. Ubuntu 20.04. perhaps its package is related on qualcomm SW. Anyone help?
