[Aqua Fish / Jolla C] Developer Mode missing after 2.1.1 update

I just realized that the "developer mode" option is missing in the Settings on my Jolla C-converted Aqua Fish after the 2.1.1 Updates. It was present before (in "Settings" - "System" as last entry below "Certificates" if I remember correctly), but now it is gone and I can't enable the mode.

For testing purposes I have removed all patches via Patchmanager, rebooted the device multiple times, but to no avail. Unfortunately, without Developer Mode I can't get a console / SSH connection to further analyze the problem. My best bet would be an incomplete update / package conflicts (even though the updates all went well according to the updater).

Does someone have any ideas how I might get it back without having to factory reset the phone or how to analyze the issue further?

SOLVED: To summarize the solution: The package jolla-settings-system-developermode was missing on my system. I installed fingerterm from harbour via Warehouse and then used it to install the missing package:

pkcon install jolla-settings-system-developermode
