I found the installation of this package broken with this output:

% kibot --quick-start 
ERROR:Unable to import plug-ins: cannot import name 'macros' from 'kibot.macros' (/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/kibot/macros.py) (kibot.gs - gs.py:731)
ERROR:Make sure you used `--no-compile` if you used pip for installation (kibot.gs - gs.py:731)
...

My solution was to install kibot by pip user-wide over the system-wide installation with pip install --upgrade --force-reinstall --break-system-packages --no-compile kibot and then to use the working ~./local/bin/kibot instead of /usr/bin/kibot. Use which kibot and change your $PATH for making sure you use the correct variant.

python-lark-parser needs to be added as a dependency, this happens with my PKGBUILD without:

$ kibot
ERROR:Unable to import plug-ins: No module named 'lark' (kibot.gs - gs.py:731)
ERROR:Make sure you used `--no-compile` if you used pip for installation (kibot.gs - gs.py:731)

After installing kibot works, but can't find a config file

$ kibot
ERROR:No config file found (*.kibot.yaml), use -c to specify one. (kibot - __main__.py:221)

It works (partly) when kibot is run in a directory containing a config file:

Build failed for me (my PKGBUILD from my below post does build OK, but I don't know if the resulting package is OK)
