Arch Linux User Repository

The ModuleNotFoundError will come up for everyone who has a per-user python lib (like ~/.local/lib/python3.13/site-packages). Install script autodetects the installation path (or something like that, I'm not 100% sure), and this one will come up first in the list.

Should work fine for everyone who doesn't keep per-user packages.

I was able to fix it by using:

PYTHONNOUSERSITE=1 python3 -m install --root "$pkgdir"

in the PKGBUILD instead of the current line

This package needs python-setuptools as a normal dependency, not just a make dependency. The application does not function otherwise.

why is this flagged ? installed without issues

Just installed it and can use it without Problems.

for autoload i think need:

Create override directory

sudo mkdir -p /etc/systemd/system/input-remapper.service.d

Create override file with autoload trigger

sudo tee /etc/systemd/system/input-remapper.service.d/autoload.conf << 'EOF' [Service] ExecStartPost=/bin/sleep 5 ExecStartPost=/usr/bin/input-remapper-control --command autoload EOF

Reload and restart

sudo systemctl daemon-reload sudo systemctl restart input-remapper

This is broken for me also:

$ input-remapper-gtk

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
input-remapper-gtk 23 <module>
from inputremapper.bin.input_remapper_gtk import InputRemapperGtkBin

ModuleNotFoundError:
No module named 'inputremapper'

Seems like the Python env is set up incorrectly by the package.

Looks like package is broken

You need to make the license identifier SPDX compliant:

input-remapper-git E: GPL3 is not a valid SPDX license identifier. See https://spdx.org/licenses/ for valid identifiers, or prefix the identifier with 'LicenseRef-', if it is custom.

Also, python-rich might be an optional dependency:

input-remapper-git E: Dependency python-rich detected and not included (python modules ['rich.traceback.install'] needed in files ['usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/inputremapper/logging/logger.py'])

Regards and thanks for the package!

From playing around with this a bit more, this might not actually be a new issue, and there might be something weird with my own local setup. I'll follow-up (either here or on a new Github issue as appropriate) if I do find something I think is a bug, but for now I think you can ignore my previous comment.
