The flag is likely invalid as I just pushed a sensible-utils that should work with this package. See https://github.com/ItachiSan/linux_packaging/issues/14.
However, @xiota remains right that the dep is dubious.

Thanks @yrlf, had time now to work on the package.
All the suggestions are sound, I applied all of them and gave you credit as contributor :)
@yrlf, thanks, works for me. Maintainer should take your patch and bump the package version.
Hi! The latest PKGBUILD has a few issues:
conflicts
variable as conflicst
checkbashisms
as checkbashism
Additionally, I want to say that I can reproduce the issues @sa7dse, @Excalibur, and @agraef encountered. Here is a quick rundown of the cause:
devscripts/scripts/setup.py
tries to import devscripts.test
from devscripts/scripts/devscripts/test/__init__.py
devscripts
/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/devscripts/__init__.py
(root cause)devscripts.test
in the found packagetest
subpackage was not not installed with the rest (symptom)I haven't found out why python prefers the installed version over the local one here, since usually it's the other way round; I will dig further into this.
For now, a workaround is to uninstall devscripts
and reinstalling it, at least that works for me.
EDIT: I found it! devscripts/scripts/devscripts/__init__.py
does not exist. python checks for the existence of a devscripts.py
or a devscripts/__init__.py
before looking in site-packages, but this package just doesn't have that file. This works fine if the package is not installed, but breaks if it is already installed.

The build also fails on all of my machines with:
python3 setup.py install --root="/home/dp/git/devscripts/pkg/devscripts" --no-compile

and that is with git cloning this repo and running makepkg
Hi @Excalibur,
I had a similar error reported on Github:
https://github.com/ItachiSan/linux_packaging/issues/12
I simply cannot reproduce. Building "the official way" with makepkg leads to no issue. Maybe cleaning the yay cache folder can solve the issue?
I got the following error when trying to upgrade 2.23.0-1 -> 2.23.1-2:

It seems that perl-moo
, perl-ipc-run
and perl-lwp-protocol-https
are also required for uscan.
Thanks for the tip zadkiel. I needed to add:
mkdir -p $pkgdir/usr/{bin,lib}
before the make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install
line before it would install successfully.
It looks like the PKGBUILD misses a build instruction.
There should be a mkdir -p $pkgdir/usr/lib
before the make install
command.

If the package is outdated, please report it with the 'Flag outdated package' above.
If there is an issue regarding packaging, please report it here:
https://github.com/ItachiSan/linux_packaging/issues/
As I do not use this package (I use a Docker container for Debian packaging) please tell me whenever a dependency is missing, so that I can move it from a make dependency to a normal dependency.
