@cmm11 I added this file /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service with the intention of reducing the running permissions for users who use flexget-webui. Users using the webui can directly run command within the webui. If you have to run these commands from the command line, traditional su cannot do it because the shell of the flexget user is /usr/bin/nologin and login is prohibited.

  • You can run sudo -u flexget flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml execute --task task_name

  • Or You can use the gosu that I just packaged to implement: sudo gosu <user>:<group> <command>, for example: sudo gosu flexget:flexget flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml execute --task task_name.

If you are using /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service, you can add a alias in your shell rc file: alias flexget="sudo -u flexget /usr/bin/flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml or alias flexget="sudo gosu flexget:flexget /usr/bin/flexget -c /var/lib/flexget/config.yml".

After taking over Flexget, I had

  • Added flexget-webui and flexget-webui-v1 in optdepends, you can install and enable webui if you need. When using webui, it is recommended to use /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service I have newly added.
  • Fixed dependency packages.
  • Added /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget.service to run as a system user, the original methods that run as normal user still exists: /usr/lib/systemd/system/flexget@.service and /usr/lib/systemd/user/flexget.service.
  • Removed check function in PKGBUILD due to the official testing of flexget before release.

If upgrade fail, you should remove old flexget first, and reinstall.

I'll be looking at this over the coming weekend.

@Alfarr, this one is managed by the OS package manager (pacman, et al), rather than a framework package manager (pip, et al). Aside from that, they're the same code... as a matter of fact, I grabulate the archive from the pypi package.

Alfarr commented on 2015-02-23 06:04 (UTC)

What is the difference between this package and the one I did install with python2-pip?

willemw commented on 2014-12-10 10:11 (UTC)

Thanks. Installing python2-beautifulsoup3 gets rid of the error messages. However, I have python2-tvrage from the AUR installed, which is the version from PyPI. No other tvrage instances are installed. Maybe python2-tvrage is missing depends=('python2-beautifulsoup3')?

Hi @willemw this is not a packaging problem, and it has nothing to do with this package. The error is caused by tvrage, but not in the version that's on aur, nor the version on PyPI, but on the bitbucket version. The bitbucket version needs python2-beautifulsoup3 which you did not install.

Hi @rbellamy python-dateutil 2.3 is out (in community), and it does not have the bug that caused upstream to disallow 2.2. So can you please switch the dependency from python2-dateutil1 to python2-dateutil ?
