So with all these problems, do you think it this package is worth keeping?

It looks like @p0ng was right after all. Even after managing to install it through some hurdles, the application crashes:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    from core.covergloobus import CoverGloobus
  File "/usr/share/covergloobus/core/covergloobus.py", line 17, in <module>
    import dbus

After manually installing python-dulwich and trying the build again, another source checkout failure:

Making the package also fails - cannot download sources:

And please declare sources in the source=() array.

Please switch dependency pyxdg to python2-pyxdg. The former is its earlier name from 2012.

If this package is still needed, please kindly fix the dbus-python dependency problem (Arch repo's package uses Python 3 but this package needs Python 2).

Also, please switch dependency pyxdg to python2-pyxdg. The former is its earlier name from 2012.

Edit: Need to install dbus-python via pip2 to work again. (pip2 install dbus-python)

I had to reinstall Arch Linux and now CoverGloobus doesn't work anymore.
