I am unable to execute this AUR package (kawaii-player). Error messages:

I am also unable to build kawaii-player-git. Error messages:

if a package doesn't build or run, it shouldn't exist. having intentionally broken packages defeats the entire purpose of packaging.

To that effect, packages both in the repos and AUR regularly add in and backport patches to ensure that the resulting package builds and runs properly

@eclairevoyant When they release a stable version containing this version, I will update the package. For now use the https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kawaii-player-git version, which should have this fix.

Needs to backport this patch: https://github.com/kanishka-linux/kawaii-player/commit/496abffe7d3bf626e28859976fed117e758b7b6e otherwise it doesn't run

FYI using kawaii-player-git may be better for now, see https://github.com/kanishka-linux/kawaii-player/issues/34

Also @clebermatheus python-setuptools should be in the makedepends not the depends

Requires python-setuptools to build in clean chroot

@Singularity I'm not sure if Kawaii Player supports playing media files directly from the terminal like mpv does, you should try asking at the developer's GitHub page.

I must be doing something wrong, I can't figure out how to just start playing a video. At least it's not "kawaii-player video-file.mp4"
