After an upgrade to Python 3.11, you need to rebuild this package (and all Python packages in the AUR).

@MrGamy Oh weird, it works fine for me now. Sorry, not sure what the problem was. Yeah everything was fresh and latest version 🤷

@rhinoceros: not sure what you downloaded really. The checksum for the .tar.gz downloaded directly from tag v4.3.2 on codeberg (https://codeberg.org/WhyNotHugo/caffeine-ng/releases/tag/v4.3.2) is the one I posted. (Double checked by downloading again on a different machine)

If you instead download the .zip, the checksum should be e3155747118b0272e30a8708b42c6d0018b7b8c3821e0299b0430ec898ccfce7d6afaabcde4417e207d42c63ab32334c3cc146c087db77ae3de3cab2858e1c35

Are you sure you downloaded the correct version and not an older one or the project archive?

The new checksum fails for me too

Mine is 6c59343209468d1e2fb6947c341b2b8caf8994df10c219d18325e549957519908f63ca5ddf6d243b5faf86f62209ee6ca8fc320d892f7a661364442fec713431

Updated for new sha512sum

Codeberg recently rolled out some changes that changed all archive checksums.

sha512 checksum in the PKGBUILD is

5b74773b53a76df431145dcc01466b3648f727e1d35cf6dde216e07b6b5a1ec97a7325f9f8c02bd188f5aa17b89aa55ce68bfb6b63a1e8bf4676383314749158

but the .tar.gz downloaded directly from codeberg has this checksum, causing the installation to fail

also I removed python-pyxdg and caffeine runs fine without it? maybe it's no longer required.

tee commented on 2026-04-26 12:34 (UTC)

ok i figured it out so my python-ewmh and python-pulsectl were installed in 2025 which went into a python 3.13 directory, maybe make it clear to clean rebuild these two aur packages first before building this package? thanks

whynothugo commented on 2026-04-25 16:45 (UTC)

tee: both of these packages are listed in depends=

Do you maybe have broken builds? Does python -c 'import ewmh' work?

tee commented on 2026-04-25 16:18 (UTC)

failed to build:
