Unable to upgrade any apps

My YunoHost server

Hardware: VPS bought online
YunoHost version: 11.0.9.12
I have access to my server : Through SSH and through the webadmin
Are you in a special context or did you perform some particular tweaking on your YunoHost instance ? : no

Description of my issue

All app installs and upgrades fail with error similar to
./upgrade: line 23: ynh_app_setting_get: command not found
example: https://paste.yunohost.org/raw/towesofide

Same occurs via webGUI and via CLI

OS upgrades work fine

Just before I noticed this issue, I was doing this:

In an attempt to get syncthing using the same folders as nextcloud I was following the last post in this thread Syncthing / permissions — Create a share with existing folder - #10 by mateMatt. edited the /etc/grp file to add syncthing to the multimedia group and then changed ownership on the share folder.

At this point I’m not bothered about the syncthing part, I just want to be able to upgrade and install apps

I was in the YNH support room and was advised to run

namei -l /usr/share/yunohost/helpers.d

output:

f: /usr/share/yunohost/helpers.d
drwxr-xr-x root root /
drwxr-xr-x root root usr
drwxr-xr-x root root share
drwxr-xr-x root root yunohost
drwxr-xr-x root root helpers.d

and
ls -l /usr/share/yunohost/helpers.d

output:

Looking at my terminal history, I can’t see how I could have caused an issue with the yunohost helpers. I guess I may have mis-edited the /etc/grp/ file to stop access to the /usr/share/yunohost/helpers

Any thoughts on what might have happened would be appreciated.

Do you really mean /etc/grp ? Isn’t it /etc/group ? Can’t you revert any change do to that file ?
