Hi BigfootLives sorry for the slow response. I am unable to reproduce, are you still having this problem?

Looks like this package now fails to build:

==> Starting pkgver()...
fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.
==> ERROR: pkgver is not allowed to be empty.
==> ERROR: pkgver() generated an invalid version:
error making: flashfocus-git

Just fixed this upstream, hopefully it should work for you now.

Solved, touch flashfocus/display_protocols/__init__.py makes sense and did the trick. Thanks! I was able to install it and use it after that.

I would also double check that you're using a recent version of setuptools.

Weird! For reference here's what that output looks like on my machine:

flashfocus.py not being found seems like a red herring. Could you try adding a blank init.py to flashfocus/display_protocols before building?

touch flashfocus/display_protocols/__init__.py

The problem persist and is present on both my machines which are fairly freshly configured with arch-linux.

The output from a fresh clone & build of the repository shows it's failing to find the flashfocus module. Let me know if you want me to play with some parameters in setup.py. I will try looking at https://setuptools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/setuptools.html later.

I can't reproduce this issue but your diagnosis does seem correct. Does this problem persist if you uninstall the package and do a fresh install?

popaul commented on 2019-09-08 19:32 (UTC)

Flashfocus fails when installed using yay flashfocus-git. It looks like the display_protocols folder is not being installed. I am not familiar enough with the package builder script to fix this unfortunately.

Command output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/flashfocus", line 8, in <module>
    from flashfocus.cli import cli
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/flashfocus/cli.py", line 12, in <module>
    from flashfocus.config import init_user_configfile, load_merged_config
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/flashfocus/config.py", line 21, in <module>
    from flashfocus.compat import DisplayProtocol, get_display_protocol
  File "/usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/flashfocus/compat.py", line 22, in <module>
    from flashfocus.display_protocols.sway import (
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'flashfocus.display_protocols'

The python flashfocus package is missing the display_protocols folder:

ls /usr/lib/python3.7/site-packages/flashfocus
__init__.py  cli.py     color.py   config.py           display.py  flasher.py  producer.py  server.py   types.py

Removing the out of date flag. This is a -git package and it will be kept up to date automatically, the version listed in the PKGBUILD is just the initial version. If something isn't working, let me know.
