Update is blocked by a bug in python-feedparser-dev package: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-feedparser-dev/#comment-802450

@cheezsteak, @yongian: the python-brotli dep is transitive, it's a bug in another package, please vote on this bug: https://bugs.archlinux.org/index.php?do=details&action=details.addvote&task_id=68391 UPDATE: please do still vote on that bug, but I pushed the workaround to this package, since that bug won't be fixed anytime soon.

@youngian: python-babelfish is a dep of python-guessit, it's already in that package, so maybe you needed to rebuild python-guessit. Not sure, but I don't think there's anything to fix here.

@youngian: I didn't test extensively, but I'm not getting the error about cached_property from wekzeug. I feel like I've seen that before though in some other context. Try rebuild python-wekzeug and make sure it's from Arch not AUR.

In addition to python-brotli, I also had to install python-babelfish to get this to run.

I am also getting this error repeatedly that looks like it's coming from one of the plugins, even though I'm not using the plugin: ImportError: cannot import name 'cached_property' from 'werkzeug' (/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/werkzeug/__init__.py)

I had to add install python-brotli 1.0.9-4 to successfully run flexget --version. I don't know what version it should be or if its required by this package or one of it's dependencies.

What is the point of including the flexget@.service file, if you are not installing it in the PKGBUILD?

@je-vv: thanks, merged. I kept the min version specs for now, though, they don't hurt.

Please, change dependency from python-path, to python-path.py, which is the same but available from official repos. Please also remove dependency upon python-pathlib, that's not required at all on python 3. Some tweaks to requirements.txt might be required

After another round of issues due to updates and broken functionality, I uninstalled flexget and all of its depends using pacman. I kept setuptools installed, and installed python2-virutalenv and python2-pip. I followed the instructions on the flexget page for setting up a virtualenv for ONLY flexget using python2 (python3 seems to have issues at this time). This seems to be working well and running OK. This process creates a build of flexget and its depends (independent of Arch) in a local folder somewhere, so it can be executed but will never interfere with Arch packages. I don't ever plan on updating the virtualenv or the packages/depends installed inside of that folder. Hopefully I can now use flexget in peace, without it breaking in an attempt to give me feature updates I don't need and won't use.

@cgirard - thank you, that fixed it!

file path if anyone else needs it:

/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/FlexGet-2.10.48-py2.7.egg-info/requires.txt

@highway: it is because zxcvbn-python is now zxcvbn. The python require file should be updated.
