@Xyne Sorry I didn't see you replied. Python should always be installed to /usr/bin/python3 (at least on Arch Linux), so there is no harm in hard-coding this. This would also solve the issue encountered by @cswoodruff. Virtual environments are actually fairly common, especially for people who need to have multiple versions of Python installed (or Python libraries). You probably haven't had people raise the issue because the fix is so simple... but I still think it would be better if mimeo ensured that the system installation of Python is used every time as opposed to explicitly using "whichever bash prefers" even if it isn't the one where the Mimeo library is installed.

It would be good if the PKGBUILD could be changed so that it uses an explicit call to python3. This ensures that python3 is always used during the build process for people like me that have a link in their path overriding the default python (/home/user/bin/python --> /usr/bin/python2).

@toketin Looks like a temporary key server error. Try a different server or try again later.

@JP-Ellis The issue of virtual environments has come up only once before in the last 4-5 years (iirc) so it seems to affect very few people. I wonder if just as many would be affected by hard-coded paths. Given that I currently neither use virtual environments nor mess around with paths, I have no strong opinion on the matter. Given that the launcher scripts are just minimalist wrappers around the Python executable, I'm more inclined to just leave it as-is and let the user's who bother to set up a virtual environment set up their own aliases or wrappers as well. I'm remain open to arguments.

It would be good if /usr/bin/mimeo could be changed so that it uses an absolute path for Python (that is, replace "python3" with "/usr/bin/python3"). This ensures that the system python is always used and the mimeo module is available. This is an issue for people who use python virtual environments as the system modules are (generally) not made available in the virtual environment.

I'm experiencing a weird issue in which mimeo launches two applications when I want to open certain files. For example, ┌─┤21:07:19│zoopp@zoopp-laptop:~ └──────────╼ mimeo --debug ~/wallhaven-317663.jpg DEBUG: loading arguments from /home/zoopp/.config/mimeo/default_arguments.txt DEBUG: opening /home/zoopp/.config/mimeo/associations.txt DEBUG: ['/usr/bin/eog', '/home/zoopp/wallhaven-317663.jpg'] DEBUG: ['gimp-2.8', 'file:///home/zoopp/wallhaven-317663.jpg'] I've noticed that this happens only for files which have associations in ~/.config/mimeo/associations.txt. For reference, these are the file contents: https://paste.kde.org/po6wbvc9i. I'm thinking of taking a look into it when I'll get some time. In the meantime, might someone have any ideas what could be wrong?

Thanks a lot for the fast fix/rewrite.
