The last update is broken in Plasma 6 [kde-unstable] for both apps. Previous was working 1.5.6-1. Root gives the same result.

conflicts=(mintstick-git) should be removed. Conflicts should only be defined in other mintstick package(s).

There is no 1.4.9 version anymore on Mint packages, the latest is 1.5.0. Can you update aur package?

For v1.4.5, the install.sh was not updated to match the new filenames. For now, this can be added to prepare():

  sed -i 's|org.linuxmint.im|com.linuxmint.mintstick|g' install.sh
  sed -i 's|mintstick.glade|mintstick.ui|g' install.sh

Oh I figured it out. The AUR python-pyparted is outdated, and it has to be updated to the latest upstream version.

Here's how:

  1. Create an empty directory

  2. inside it, create a text file named PKGBUILD

  3. Copy and paste the following content to this PKGBUILD file and save (as you may discover, only pkgrel, pkgver and sha512sum() are updated from v3.11.6, nothing malicious, don't trust me (or anyone else), please verify it yourself):

_pkgname=pyparted
pkgname=python-${_pkgname}
pkgver=3.11.7
pkgrel=0
pkgdesc="Python module for GNU parted"
url="https://github.com/dcantrell/pyparted"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
license=('GPL2')
makedepends=('pkg-config' 'python>=3.5' 'parted>=3.0')
conflicts=('pyparted-git')
replaces=('pyparted')
source=("https://github.com/dcantrell/${_pkgname}/releases/download/v${pkgver}/${_pkgname}-${pkgver}.tar.gz")
sha512sums=('41018989c21aab577cd1d51f521128d072b346afb9dcdcc27490cdbc2ed4382a854e4bd16780da72a0a95bbd521f14ee0e7f02816f34656cbae734d43a4f0b83')

build() {
  cd "${srcdir}/${_pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  python setup.py build
}

package() {
  depends=('python' 'parted>=3.0')

  cd "${srcdir}/${_pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  python setup.py install --prefix=/usr --root="${pkgdir}" --optimize=1 --skip-build
  install -Dm755 COPYING "${pkgdir}/usr/share/licenses/${pkgname}/COPYING"
  install -Dm755 AUTHORS "${pkgdir}/usr/share/doc/${pkgname}/AUTHORS"
  install -Dm755 TODO "${pkgdir}/usr/share/doc/${pkgname}/TODO"
  install -Dm755 README "${pkgdir}/usr/share/doc/${pkgname}/README"
}

use your commandline to navigate to this directory and make a new package:

$ makepkg -siC

It'll update the python-pyparted package, and that's it.

The python-pyparted AUR package maintainer isn't responding to update request right now, and basically this is how you would now updating it by yourself.

Hi,

I recently have this error, the GUI will report "An error occurred."

If run in cmdline, it'll have this:

$ sudo mintstick -m format -u /dev/sda
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/mintstick/raw_format.py", line 7, in <module>
    import parted
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'parted'
An error occurred.

@Sam-Burgos: The icons and man page are missing (edited):

package() {
  cd ${pkgname}

  ## Creating the directories to copy the files
  install -d "$pkgdir/usr/bin"
  install -d "$pkgdir/usr/share/applications"
  install -d "$pkgdir/usr/share/polkit-1/actions"
  cp -rp share/{icons,nemo} "$pkgdir/usr/share"

  ## install.sh script is the one who contains all the installation process
  ./install.sh

  ## Install man page
  install -Dm644 "debian/$pkgname.1" -t "$pkgdir/usr/share/man/man1"
}

@asasione: the issue was with the package "python-pyparted", which was updated recently, I have tried to reinstall and now it works (you might have to clean the cache on your AUR helper in case you tried to install it previously)
