@F1iX @wget Does installing
python-pychromecast-gitnot solve the problem of not finding Chromecast devices? Things work perfectly fine for me without installingpulseaudio-dlna, and I'm hesitant to add that as an optional dependency since it is no longer maintained upstream.F1iX commented on 2022-06-04 11:30 (UTC)
I got
No devices found! [...] Killeduntil installingpulseaudio-dlna. Now works like a charm!wget commented on 2022-01-14 23:38 (UTC)
I have made quick changes in order to build the package and make it work (the solution was
pulseaudio-dlnawhich allowed me to detect my Google Nest Hub).If this is useful for others passing by... https://github.com/wget/archlinux-aur-mkchromecast-git

Could the changes suggested by frukt be made?
gi is definitely not required, that should instead be python-gobject.
Terence commented on 2021-02-12 17:39 (UTC)
Hey frukt sorry for taking so long to reply... I agree with the changes you want to make but I don't use this package anymore so I'm going to disown it. Feel free to adopt it if you can/want.
frukt commented on 2020-09-17 15:30 (UTC)
It seems like a bunch of the declared dependencies are at most optional. The mkchromecast package [1] has a much slimmer dependencies list and could be used as a template. In particular, python-pyqt5 seems wildly excessive (pulling in QT5 for a CLI app?), and I removed a few others before building, like gi.
That said, thanks for maintaining the package!

@applebloom Thanks, should be fixed now.

There's an issue that I can't update python2-mutagen because of this package. I think this is because the latest python2-mutagen doesn't provide mutagen dependency this package requires. I'm not sure how to resolve this.

Thanks @chappjc, updated.

The "devel" branch seems to be removed. Probably build from master now.

@nate Thanks, I repackaged it according to the new upstream changes. Please try it and tell me if it works.

The PKGBUILD is no longer working. The error message is
==> Entering fakeroot environment...
==> Starting package()...
install: cannot stat 'mkchromecast.py': No such file or directory
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().
As of commit 3473a77eea7 in the devel branch, the file mkchromecast.py was moved to bin/mkchromecast.
