Update fails

[tsmaeder]

Bug Description:

I cannot update from 1.39.0 to 1.40.0: the update does not finish

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Have blueprint 1.39.0 installed
2. A while after the start, a notification occurs, announcing that an update is available
3. Click "Yes" on the notification
4. Observe: a unknown progress indicator appears on the notification, but stays forever, not doing anything

Additional Information

When clicking yes, this exception occurs in the browser log:

theia-updater-frontend-contribution.ts:200 Uncaught (in promise) TypeError: (0 , u.setInterval) is not a function
    at A.handleDownloadUpdate (theia-updater-frontend-contribution.ts:200:31)

This should be fixed starting with 1.40 with #285

@tsmaeder Could you validate the fix, please?

[jfaltermeier]

The fix is not released yet, because the build fails on windows. The Machine has too few RAM available. I've reopened https://gitlab.eclipse.org/eclipsefdn/helpdesk/-/issues/3231 but there was no reply yet

[jfaltermeier]

1.41 is released now.
Updating from 1.40 (https://download.eclipse.org/theia/1.40.0/) to 1.41 worked for me on windows and linux. I don't have a mac available.
