Arch Linux User Repository

PSA: I've started hosting this and all its dependencies as prebuilt packages in my repository for those that want to install them using pacman without messing around with building from the AUR.

looks like the build is broken on current systems, when building right now it errors out in a pretty deep chain of dependencies, ending at:

==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies.
error: target not found: python-fontparts
error: target not found: python-fontpens

Thanks @gyscos, that apparently got added in 3.5.1 and I missed the requirements change. See this commit for where it got added and why. I'll list it here.

I think this packages depends on python-tqdm to run makeotf. Without it:

@caleb - I apologize but thank you very much for pointing those out :)

@Ota-Coder You seem to have installed the python-defcon files directly to your system outside of the pacman manager — probably by doing some sort of sudo python setup.py install yourself instead of using pakcages. You best bet is probably to build that package correctly and install it with pacman -U <package> --overwirte usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/defcon/\* or something like that.

Also please note that is not a problem installing this packgae, that is a problem installing a different package and stems from you doing something behind pacman's back. Please move further comments to the python-defcon package (if it is at fault, which it doesn't look like) or the discussion forum.

I'm facing this problem when I build this

Did I do anything wrong?

Edit: When I tried uninstalling python-defcon-git, this is the result:

=========================== short test summary info ============================

    Aborting...

Updating this to v3.3.0 is currently blocked on a major version update to python-mutatormath. As soon as that hits the AUR I'll post the update.

@caleb: You're right, I just tested without cu2qu and running autohint complained about missing it.

@yochananmarqos I saw the merge go through on fonttools, but the namespace where these features are available is going to be different. Each tool that uses it will need to specifically call the one we want. I don't think this package (or most any other) can drop it as a dependency until the ustream projects explicitly call the fonttools embedded API and drop the direct dependency from their requirements.txt file(s) or setup.py meta data.

This should no longer need python-cu2qu as python-fonttools now includes it.
