@kstolp this is the patch, seems to work fine in my case.
@TTimo i dont think its a problem with the upstream repo, the aws cli is just doing some incompatible things in the background. It has to be fixed by the aws-cli maintainers.

@kstolp the problem is with the python prompt_toolkit package, not directly this AUR. See https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/python-prompt-toolkit/issues/1988 - in particular this comment explains how to download, build and install the previous version: https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/python-prompt-toolkit/issues/1988#issuecomment-2827704607

@project0 Do you mind formatting your suggestion as a patch to this repo?
project0 commented on 2025-05-12 16:25 (UTC)
Can we add a patch to fix the import?
This seems to work for me:
from contextlib import contextmanager, nullcontext
import importlib.metadata
# Patch metadata.version to prevent crash due to missing dist-info
real_metadata_version = importlib.metadata.version
def safe_version(name):
if name == "prompt_toolkit":
return "0.0.0" # dummy version
return real_metadata_version(name)
importlib.metadata.version = safe_version
from prompt_toolkit.application import Application
from prompt_toolkit.completion import Completer, Completion, ThreadedCompleter
from prompt_toolkit.document import Document

Needed to run downgrade on python-prompt_toolkit to 3.0.50
ian-melo commented on 2025-05-06 21:33 (UTC)
The workaround proposed in https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/issues/9453#issuecomment-2818611814 worked for me:
sudo pacman -U /var/cache/pacman/pkg/python-prompt_toolkit-3.0.50-1-any.pkg.tar.zst

Latest version seems to be failing to install:
...Sorry, NVM, I see, need to downgrade prompt_toolkit. Did not see the similar stack trace below, wrongfully assumed it is new.

If you receive this error when trying to build, it is because you have not imported the GPG keys used for verification.
You have two options:
1) Import the key into your keyring. ArchWiki article. The key is available in this repo, which is copied from the AWS documentation. e.g.
gpg --import keys/pgp/FB5DB77FD5C118B80511ADA8A6310ACC4672475C.asc. (recommended)2) Alternatively, you can skip this verification by passing the
--skippgpcheckargument tomakepkgwhen building. (not recommended)
