If possible, please remove the dependency on python-furure/ make the package working without python-future:

WARNING: python-future package is not compatible with Python 3.13

The python-future project was created in 2013 to attempt to save Python from the schism of version incompatibility that was threatening to tear apart the language (as Perl 6 contributed to the death of Perl).

That time is now past. Thanks to a huge porting effort across the Python community, Python 3 eventually thrived. Python 2 reached its end of life in 2020 and the python-future package should no longer be necessary. Use it to help with porting legacy code to Python 3 but don’t depend on it for new code.

If you use packages that depend on it, please contact maintainers and/or upstream of these packages and try to work out whether this dependency is really needed.

Regards and thanks for this package!

This package no longer builds:

python: can't open file '/home/alex/.cache/yay/linkchecker-git/src/linkchecker/setup.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

The problem is that linkchecker switched from setuptools to pyproject in 2022: https://github.com/linkchecker/linkchecker/commit/47d1015e00b34ac354f42e2f35f4ac90be9f2b40

@gbabin thanks, package updated.

I suppose the README has not yet been updated. The previous stable release depended on Python 2. However, this is a -git package. Currently the package does not build.

See https://github.com/linkchecker/linkchecker/blob/master/setup.py#L31

@gabin, according to their site, "It runs on Python 2 systems, requiring Python 2.7.2 or later. Python 3 is not yet supported". Mind providing details?

gbabin commented on 2020-04-04 15:41 (UTC)

Now, this program requires Python 3.5 or later.

@gbabin, fixed, thanks.

Please add python2-future to the dependencies (as documented in requirements.txt).
