Arch Linux User Repository

Fava has been updated to 1.30. This version now supports Beancount 3.x and depends on beanquery and beangulp packages that provide bean-query and bean-extract commands in Beancount 2.x.

As per https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/beanquery#comment-1009521 you can install python-tatsu=5.7.4 with the PKGBUILD at https://gist.github.com/wzyboy/a5acef9bc8e9bfd74f07696b21551c65 Afterwards fava/beancount can be installed as normal. If you follow up by pacman -D --asdeps python-tatsu then you should get future updates, too, once this mess is resolved by new releases.

Can't install because of the python-tastu dependency.

npm is needed to build the package.

@xuhcc Thanks. Dep added.

A new dependency was added in 1.28: python-watchfiles

Hi, for the next update you can use this PKGBUILD, it builds from source and does not hardcode any python version:

# Maintainer: Zhuoyun Wei <wzyboy@wzyboy.org>

pkgname="fava"
pkgdesc="Web interface for beancount"
pkgver=1.26.2

build(){
 cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
 python -m build --wheel --no-isolation
}

package(){
 cd "$pkgname-$pkgver"
 python -m installer --destdir="$pkgdir" dist/*.whl
}

package() uses /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/ but current python is 3.11

Please add python-setuptools as a dependency. It throws the following error without it:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/fava", line 5, in <module>
    from fava.cli import main
  File "/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/fava/__init__.py", line 4, in <module>
    from pkg_resources import DistributionNotFound
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pkg_resources'

After recent system update fava began to fail with

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Permission denied: '/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/google_api_core-2.3.2-py3.10.egg-info/PKG-INFO'

I'm not sure what fava has to do with google but downgrading python-google-api-core from 2.3.2-1 to 2.3.0-1 has helped.
