We implemented some time ago In App Updates using Google Play Core library, and recently (started on September 8th) to shown on our Crashlytics lots of Install Error (-100) crashes. Not sure if Google Play rollout something on that day, but even after we update the library to version 1.8.0 (before it was 1.7.3), the crashes continue reaching up to 7% of our daily active users. Following the stacktrace of the crash:
Caused by com.google.android.play.core.install.InstallException: Install Error(-100): An internal error happened in the Play Store. (https://developer.android.com/reference/com/google/android/play/core/install/model/InstallErrorCode#ERROR_INTERNAL_ERROR)
at com.google.android.play.core.appupdate.o.a(o.java:6)

The question is what is this error? Internal Error seems to be a generic one, which doesn't say much about how can I fix it.
It seems to be a duplicated of this one, but as there is no answer to it I'm asking again. How to solve install status code -100 while working with In-App update in Android?
