The /etc/fw_sys.config is supposed to be created on first installation,
just like the /etc/fw_env.config. I wasn't quite sure what to do in the
wrapper if it doesn't exist. The wrapper cannot know if the config is
supposed to be there or not. So the current version will just exit
silently, as you've observed. Maybe not the best solution? I am open
to ideas.
Anyway, the config files will only be generated if /etc/config/ubootenv
doesn't exist. If you installed to flash you can look at
/rom/etc/uci-defaults/30_uboot-envtools
The first line is "[ -e /etc/config/ubootenv ] && exit 0"
This is how the package has been working all the time. It should
probably be fixed. But I guess the assumption was that the environment
partition config is a hardware property which will not change?

That's strange. What does the file look like? FWIW, here is mine from
the same switch model:
root@gs1900-10hp:/# cat /etc/fw_sys.config
/dev/mtd2 0x0 0x1000 0x10000
And it works:
root@gs1900-10hp:/# fw_printsys
resetdefault=0
mac_start=BC:CF:4F:D1:6B:32
mac_end=BC:CF:4F:D1:6B:3C
sn=S202L28001735
dualfname1=2.60(AAZI.2)C0.bix
dualfname0=x.bin
bootpartition=0
This is my ubootenv (which is irrelevant as it isn't be used by
anything after first install):
root@gs1900-10hp:/# cat /etc/config/ubootenv
config ubootenv
option dev '/dev/mtd1'
option offset '0x0'
option envsize '0x400'
option secsize '0x10000'
config ubootsys
option dev '/dev/mtd2'
option offset '0x0'
option envsize '0x1000'
option secsize '0x10000'
