This comment from @AvacadoCookie should be pinned, IMO.

If anyone is getting errors about Cython or setuptools, and they are using Conda, that comment has the answer.

If anyone is getting errors about Cython or setuptools, and they are using pyenv, there are 2 possible ways to fix it:

  1. pyenv local system to set Python back to the system installed Python for this session.
  2. pip install Cython setuptools to install the necessary packages to your preferred python installation.

For all users with ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'Cython' or 'setuptools' reported, please try the following methods to address the problem:

  1. Quit conda environment. Now after which python typed in console, the output should be /usr/bin/python.
  2. Try again.
  3. If the installation still failed, try again after pacman -S cython python-setuptools.

I just looked over the last changes. You placed a link to the icon in /usr/share/pixmaps. However, you also hardcoded the icon path in the desktop files now. If you wouldn't do that, the icon theme could provide it's own icon, and the one from pixmaps would be used if it doesn't. Also, I think using the pixmaps directory is deprecated, /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/ is the new location.
PS: I also wouldn't hardcode the executable's path either, because then I can override it by placing my own in /usr/local/bin … (For example, I do that with java applications which still need java8, to set there a different JAVA_HOME and then calling the real binary from there.)

@donny thanks for the reply. I had cython installed and did a clean build. The problem was that I was working in a virtualenv. In this virtualenv there was no Cython installed.

So I deactivated and it worked, like a charm :)

@klaasjanelzinga: Make sure your system is up to date (pacman -Suy) and cython package is installed (it's in makedepends), it's in the [community] repo. Also if you use yay or some similar aur helper, do a clean build, don't re-use your old build files.

@XavierCLL thank you for the swift fix :)

Hi @mqs, thanks for reporting it, I didn't know that some app still uses the pixmaps folder, fixed, (update: small fix but I decided increases the pkgrel)

mqs commented on 2020-12-05 23:17 (UTC)

Hey! Thanks for the package. Could you please put the icon back into /usr/share/pixmaps, so other apps can find it via xdg (when only searching for the icon)? A symlink to /opt/pycharm-professional/bin/pycharm.png(or svg) should be enough.

I noticed that it was gone by pure coincidence (the albert plugin[1] uses it and I was working on it today) :D

Is there a reason it was (re)moved?

Thanks guys, updated and fixed

@qft thanks for your tip, it's working again.

  • add 'cython' to makedepends, so it looks like this:

makedepends=('python-setuptools' 'cython')

  • update the build() function:
build() {
  cd "pycharm-$pkgver"

  # compile PyDev debugger used by PyCharm to speedup debugging
  rm plugins/python/helpers/pydev/_pydevd_frame_eval/*.c
  python plugins/python/helpers/pydev/setup_cython.py build_ext --build-temp build --build-lib . --force-cython 

  rm -r bin/fsnotifier lib/pty4j-native/linux/{x86,ppc64le}
}

qft commented on 2020-12-05 03:57 (UTC)

@XavierCLL The reason for this bug is that the debugger .c files are not synchronized with the .pyx files. This issue can be fixed by regenerating the .c files by passing the --force-cython flag to setup_cython.py. As I have done in the pycharm-eap PKGBUILD https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=pycharm-eap
