I'll also note that I can connect to https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/archive/refs/tags/v1.4.3.tar.gz just fine - it's the backintime-cli repository that is linked in the update, however, and this is not publicly visible.

I don't know about that; I'm getting the same 404 error from the US, Canada, and France on three separate computers. It looks like that git repository is private. Can you access it if you're not signed in?

The update from about two hours ago is failing; it's hitting a 404 error trying to download https://github.com/bit-team/backintime-cli/archive/refs/tags/v1.4.3.tar.gz

I can't activate cronie.service
as that would go against the Arch Way. I can add a post_install scriptlet that will notify users though.

Upstream maintainer here. It seems that on arch and arch-based systems cron/cronie is installed but not enabled. The scheduling in BIT won't work but users don't know about it. Can you add something to your AUR package to activate cron after installation or minimally warn the users about it and point them to a documentation/wiki page?

This is how I installed it:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/backintime.git /tmp/backintime
cd /tmp/backintime
makepkg -si --nocheck
Note: I had to uninstall previous version and manually delete files from /usr/share/backintime/
otherwise there were conflicts during installation

Responding to @sunshe35.
This has worked for me:
- Remove backintime package.
- Do regular updates.
- Install the package back.
Perhaps it will work for you too? :-)

There is a error for me:
#clean-up installed old files that were renamed or moved in later BiT versions
rm -f /etc/dbus-1/system.d/net.launchpad.backintime.serviceHelper.conf
rm: cannot remove '/etc/dbus-1/system.d/net.launchpad.backintime.serviceHelper.conf': Read-only file system
make: *** [Makefile:14: install] Error 1
what should I do?
In the newest version(1.4.3-2), the bug has been fixed. It works well now.
[sunshe35@archlinux tmp]$ yay -Qs backint

Using an AUR helper such as yay to build packages including backintime is HIGHLY discouraged. The recommended build method is to use a clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot
I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.
Please stop posting build failures because you insist on building with yay or other AUR helpers.
