As a quick and dirty fix for the current problem with Python 3.13 and python-future, just remove the according line from $IDF_PATH/requirements.txt. I'm sure this breaks something, but at least for the project I'm currently working on, building and flashing to the esp8266 works fine.

If possible, please remove the dependency on python-furure/ make the package working without python-future:

WARNING: python-future package is not compatible with Python 3.13

The python-future project was created in 2013 to attempt to save Python from the schism of version incompatibility that was threatening to tear apart the language (as Perl 6 contributed to the death of Perl).

That time is now past. Thanks to a huge porting effort across the Python community, Python 3 eventually thrived. Python 2 reached its end of life in 2020 and the python-future package should no longer be necessary. Use it to help with porting legacy code to Python 3 but don’t depend on it for new code.

If you use packages that depend on it, please contact maintainers and/or upstream of these packages and try to work out whether this dependency is really needed.

Regards and thanks for this package!

the problem:

*** Unable to find the ncurses libraries or the
*** required header files.
*** 'make menuconfig' requires the ncurses libraries.
*** 
*** Install ncurses (ncurses-devel) and try again.

should modify /opt/esp8266-rtos-sdk/tools/kconfig/lxdialog/check-lxdialog.sh

#include CURSES_LOC
int main() {}

to:

#include CURSES_LOC
int main() { return 0; }

@srtlg: Could you please also correct the maintainer comment in the PKGBUILD?

Recently this package has been producing this error during installation.

I've created an updated PKGBUILD that applies a patch to fix the issue: https://gist.github.com/fiffy326/3a09451d7b581e086392f1021b52c673

Until this package is updated, you can makepkg -si with my PKGBUILD and it should install with no issues.

strangely now https://github.com/espressif/ESP8266_RTOS_SDK/archive/v$pkgver.tar.gz is missing some files (in my case mbedtls/mbedtls/include/mbedtls/sha256.h), the following is complete https://github.com/espressif/ESP8266_RTOS_SDK/releases/download/v${pkgver}/ESP8266_RTOS_SDK-v${pkgver}.zip

@trita They did, fixed it. Thx.

@bionade24 Checksum for the github archive doesn't match. Maybe they changed it?

Great cryptography is alive again, no worries.

@carlosal1015 Now works again. Sadly, Espressif still recommends python2 :(

You could try to use python3 and see how far you get, though.
