For anyone wanting to install bauh, add this prepare block to the PKGBUILD (all credits go to @hoosac22 and whoever added the PR to the official GitHUb repo, patch code looks the same but the sed commands do not work):

prepare() {
    p_file="411.patch"
    p_url="https://github.com/vinifmor/bauh/pull/$p_file"
    curl -fsSL -o ../"$p_file" "$p_url" || wget -O ../"$p_file" "$p_url" || true
    cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
    patch -p1 < ../../"$p_file"
}

Make sure you have either curl or wget installed, and patch as well (you should, if you are using AUR anyway). You can also apply instead any patch you want, just comment out the line with curl and add a file named 411.patch in the same directory as PKGBUILD with the patch you prefer.

I did not test all features tho, I just needed it to check some old AppImages I had installed in the past using it.

@hoosac22 please file an orphan request if the maintainer is inactive and you want to integrate your patch.

This is not out-of-date, it just needs a small source patch. 0.10.7 is the latest upstream release (Jan 2024); there is no newer version to bump to.

The traceback in the flag is a Python 3.14 incompatibility, not a version lag: pkgutil.find_loader() was removed in 3.14, and bauh/view/core/gems.py still calls it. The fix is a small source patch in the PKGBUILD (swap pkgutil.find_loader -> importlib.util.find_spec). Tested working on Python 3.14:

--- a/bauh/view/core/gems.py +++ b/bauh/view/core/gems.py @@ -import pkgutil +import importlib +import importlib.util @@ def load_managers(...): - loader = pkgutil.find_loader(f'bauh.gems.{f.name}.controller') - if loader: - module = loader.load_module() + module_name = f'bauh.gems.{f.name}.controller' + spec = importlib.util.find_spec(module_name) + if spec: + module = importlib.import_module(module_name)

Suggested PKGBUILD integration — add a prepare() step:

prepare() { cd "$pkgname-$pkgver" sed -i \ -e 's/^import pkgutil$/import importlib\nimport importlib.util/' \ bauh/view/core/gems.py sed -i \ -e "s|loader = pkgutil.find_loader((.*))|spec = importlib.util.find_spec(\1)|" \ -e 's|if loader:|if spec:|' \ -e 's|module = loader.load_module()|module = importlib.import_module(module_name)|' \ bauh/view/core/gems.py }

Please flag as not out-of-date and carry the patch instead — bumping pkgver won't help since the version is already current. Thanks!

On a new installation of Archlinux it bauh still will not launch. Is there any new movement on this package?: % bauh

Still broken due to Python 3.14

Please add qt5-wayland as a dependency. Without it, the program throws a 'wayland' plugin not found error.

INSTALLATION OF APPIMAGES BROKEN

Just removed the base-devel deps from the PKGBUILD definition (0.9.20-2). Thanks for sharing this information.

@vfm90: Members of the base-devel group should not be added to makedepends().
