QR code scanning with camera does not work without qt5-multimedia installed - should be added to optdepends.

Probably a missing dependency. After installing this I get this info that is really meant for developers instead of users:

zxing-cpp module missing. Please try installing it with: python3 -m pip install 'zxing-cpp>=2.2.0' --user

This fails to compile with the following log:

The PKGBUILD is using a tar.gz file that is the full git tree (e.g. https://github.com/Electrum-Abc/Electrum-Abc/archive/4.4.0.tar.gz), which is different than the one published in the release (e.g. https://github.com/Electron-Cash/Electron-Cash/releases/download/4.4.0/Electron-Cash-4.4.0.tar.gz), so the SHA256 doesn't match.

Unless there is something that is needed from the archive version I propose the PKGBUILD is changed to use the release tar.gz, it would make it easier to validate for integrity.

For version 4.4.0 this should depend on zxing-cpp

You should be able to avoid users manually doing this with the following diff;

-  'python-pathvalidate'
+  'python-pathvalidate>=3.0.0'

@NetHunter, is python-pathvalidate installed? You might need to explicitly reinstall it for newer Python versions when Arch updates.

the pkgbuild tries to use the very outdated pycryptodomex==3.6.6 which is not compatible with python 3.10. This is because this constraint is given in electron-cash's tox.ini.

This results in the following error:

.tox/py310/lib/python3.10/site-packages/Cryptodome/Cipher/_mode_ctr.py:37: in <module> from Cryptodome.Util.number import long_to_bytes E File "/tmp/makepkg/electron-cash/src/Electron-Cash-4.2.6/.tox/py310/lib/python3.10/site-packages/Cryptodome/Util/number.py", line 399 E s = pack('>I', n & 0xffffffffL) + s E ^ E SyntaxError: invalid hexadecimal literal

To fix while still running tests, append a specific forced version of pycryptodomex for tox like so:

tox -e py310 --force-dep pycryptodomex~=3.10

@currantpigeonsty From https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#replaces

If providing an alternate version of an already existing package or uploading to the AUR, use the conflicts and provides arrays, which are only evaluated when actually installing the conflicting package.

electron-cash is already in conflicts and provides.
