Use uv to build wheel could better because uv already in dependency

I think python-poetry needs to be added to the list of build dependencies. I just tried installing this for the first time and got this error without it:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/pyproject_hooks/_impl.py", line 402, in _call_hook

@pat-s

this seems to be related to an upstream error: https://github.com/lra/mackup/issues/1167

Try installing the 0.8.17 version of this package or using python2 and see if that fixes the issue.

I also get the error "Unable to find the storage folder:". How did you fix it?

FYI, installation via pip works fine.

python-docopt is a dep not a buildep

leira commented on 2016-12-27 22:51 (UTC)

It works now, thanks~

The patch is to fix the config parse when using unicode characters in pathnames, for which there are currently multiple pull requests out. Since python 3 strings are unicode by default, they don't generally have the decode method, but for some some reason your path variable is being saved as a bytestring though so that's why it's acting up. I've adjusted the patch somewhat so hopefully that'll work.

I don't understand why the patch is needed here. Looks to me, the upstream handles encoding just well. It worked fine without the patch. With patch, it break mackup on my machine. When running `mackup restore -n -v`, it complains: Unable to find the storage folder: b'/home/leira/Dropbox'

Apologies, should be fixed by now.
