If input sound from Speakers & Microphone not detected, you can solve with this: https://askubuntu.com/a/1234330/777616 It just needs to replace /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/kazam/pulseaudio/pulseaudio.py with the fixed one https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hzbd/kazam/aca8dd4e2eb9caf676682933a06bc997decd5804/kazam/pulseaudio/pulseaudio.py

@coxackie I adopted this package and it works now. Please check.

@yuricoles @spsf64: indeed, adding python-distutils-extra as a dependency builds the package, but when I run I get

WARNING Kazam - Failed to correctly detect operating system.

Installing libkeybinder3 (supposed to be optional dependency) did the trick.

@yurikoles, error during build; adding "python-distutils-extra" as makedepends seems to work fine

i get this error when starting kazam after installing it /usr/bin/kazam:32: PyGIWarning: Gtk was imported without specifying a version first. Use gi.require_version('Gtk', '3.0') before import to ensure that the right version gets loaded. from gi.repository import Gtk WARNING Kazam - Failed to correctly detect operating system. Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/kazam", line 81, in <module> from kazam.version import *

I used a hack to fix the package, see https://github.com/hzbd/kazam/issues/20#issuecomment-449975842

@51v4n is unfortunately correct that the package has been abandoned. A much better fix has not been merged by upstream. There's also issue #11, very annoying as I have a 4k display, to contend with.

Would anyone be upset if I pointed this package at my own fork? I would only do so if I manage to fix #11.

Sorry for the delays on answering, looks like the project it's EOL, if anyone wants to take care of this package, welcome.

Cheers!

There seem to be errors in the original software (while running on Python 3.7):

@wskorodecki Thank you. It was that.
