plugin crashes on KiCAD 7

[SebKuzminsky]

I just ran in to the bug from #366.

I'm running KiCad 7 on Debian Bookworm. I had installed this project using the KiCad PCM, following the instructions in the README.

When I tried to generate JLCPCB production files I got this error on the console:

That used to work for me back on KiCad 6, but fails now that i'm on 7.

I then tried installing the plugin from git (still on KiCad 7), restarted KiCad, and got this different error:

I'm happy to do any debugging you'd like here.

What version of Kicad do you run exactly?
Did you uninstall the old version of the plugin and install it fresh?
