Just stop working after updating

Vterm just stop working after update.
I use straight. So after straight-pull-all like I normally do to update my packages, it stop working.
When I do M-x vterm, I get this:

Try deleting the package and reinstalling it? We just changed something to improve the compatibility with straight.

I delete everything. And when I installed it again. There is a vterm directory in ~/.emacs.d/straight/build/vterm/ but there is not vterm directory in ~/.emacs.d/straight/repos/.

Thanks. Unfortunately, I am not familiar with straight.el. We will need help on their side to fix this.

Keep in mind the repository name is emacs-libvterm so you will find your directory in ~/.emacs.d/straight/repos/emacs-libvterm, also make sure you're testing with the straight development branch. You can do this by including (setq straight-repository-branch "develop") in your init-file before the bootstrap snippet.

@ram535 If it's not working for you, you should check:

• the Git revision of repos/straight.el
• the Git revision of repos/emacs-libvterm
• the Git revision of repos/melpa
• what happens if you delete the entire build directory and build-cache.el and restart Emacs, forcing a clean compilation of everything

It works now. Thanks.
As suggested I:

• deleted ~/.emacs.d/straight/build-cache.el
• deleted ~/.emacs.d/straight/repos/emacs-libvterm
• deleted ~/.emacs.d/straight/build/vterm
• added (setq straight-repository-branch "develop") to ~/.emacs.d/init.el

Final configuration.

(defvar bootstrap-version)
(setq straight-repository-branch "develop")
(let ((bootstrap-file
       (expand-file-name "straight/repos/straight.el/bootstrap.el" user-emacs-directory))
      (bootstrap-version 5))
  (unless (file-exists-p bootstrap-file)
    (with-current-buffer
        (url-retrieve-synchronously
         "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/raxod502/straight.el/develop/install.el"
         'silent 'inhibit-cookies)
      (goto-char (point-max))
      (eval-print-last-sexp)))
  (load bootstrap-file nil 'nomessage))

(setq straight-use-package-by-default t)

(use-package vterm)
