PSA: You may need to uninstall the old autokey package before you can upgrade to autokey-common + autokey-gtk / autokey-qt due to conflicting files.

I just found this AUR and used it to replace old Autokey that no longer functioned. Autokey is a critical application for so many of us. I hope development will continue. Thank you for updating this package.

Gotcha. Was in the autokey directory. Just didn't realize I needed to add the version numbers and extension.

 $ sudo pacman -U --asdeps autokey-common-0.95.10-2-x86_64.pkg.tar.zst

seemed to do it. Same worked for for autokey-gtk.

Thanks for your help!

@buzuddha: You already built the packages, now go to the $PKGDEST and install them. Also see man makepkg and read the Arch wiki page.

buzuddha commented on 2020-12-17 02:23

Hmmm...

[user@Squarch autokey]$ makepkg -s
==> ERROR: The package group has already been built. (use -f to overwrite)
[user@Squarch autokey]$ sudo pacman -U --asdeps autokey-common
[sudo] password for user: 
loading packages...
error: 'autokey-common': could not find or read package

I get the same with 

makepkg -sf
and then the pacman install. Any thoughts?

@buzuddha: Build the package without -i, then install manually after:

sudo pacman -U --asdeps autokey-common

Then either:

sudo pacman -U autokey-gtk

Or:

sudo pacman -U autokey-qt

I'm having an issue with updating autokey. The long story is here: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1943997#p1943997

The short story is :: autokey-gtk and autokey-qt are in conflict during makepkg -si of auotkey-common. Anything I'm missing?

@zhimsel: Good catch, fixed.

FYI, the PKGBUILD as-is is broken (at least on my system). All the rm commands for the pycache files need to be rm -f. Those file don't exist (on my system), so the plain rm command fails.

It looks like Arch pushed out a new version of Python (3.9). I ran into errors running autokey-gtk and autokey-qt, because the Python module autokey was not found. My AUR helper (pikaur) does not rebuild AUR packages when this happens (not sure if that's just the default pikaur configuration or I have it configured not to rebuild). I had to install the PKGBUILD manually to workaround it.

I probably could have fixed it by telling pikaur to rebuild the PKGBUILD, instead of running makepkg -sri in the directory where the PKGBUILD lives. Just a gotcha that seems to be hitting a lot of my Python programs lately.
