I'm not sure if there's a way to fix this in the package or if we need the upstream to support python3.13, but it seems like this no longer works with the latest python since imghdr was removed in python3.13. I tried messing with the MAKEPKG file to see if I could force it to go back to using python3.12, but it didn't seem like it was going to be super simple.

Can we please get a "blink-bin" version of this? It is just insane how many dependencies have to be installed manually in order to get anywhere...

@bsdice I had installed python-lxml-html-clean because it was dependent on another package. Yes with python-lxml-html-clean, it looks enough. I updated and added it as a dependency. Thanks

Have you installed https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-lxml-html-clean/ ? Or are you not running Python 3.12? Otherwise blink should crap out during startup.

Dependency to python-lxml-html-clean in PKGBUILD should be enough but haven't tested.

@bsdice Thanks for your feedback. I already updated python-application. Don't know if we still need the patch for lxml_html_clean. It is working for me. Please check. Thanks

Now python-lxml has broken the application because lxml_html_clean is no longer working. Here is a PKGBUILD (note, with my CA added) that still works.

I monkey-patched https://github.com/fedora-python/lxml_html_clean/tree/main into the package and adjusted the import.

FYI Python 3.12 has removed deprecated SafeConfigParser, blink will not work anymore.

Patch for package python-application: https://github.com/AGProjects/python3-application/issues/5

@bsdice Thanks for your feedback. I added the cython0 package to makedepends.

As is good custom in python-land (sarcasm), the upgrade to "cython 3" broke compilation. But there is a cython0 package which works. Maintainer might want to add it to makedepends. Since this breakage is never-ending, Nix and Rust obviously with superior concepts.

@bsdice Thanks for your feedback. Since there is no tag for 5.5.1 on the upstream git repo, we can still don't have the patch here. But you can use blink-git package to get the last commits from the upstream git repo.
