@dynobo: Well, then don't use Pamac for AUR packages.

@yochananmarqos:

What does that mean?

It means, if I run pamac install normcap to install the package (like I usually do for any AUR package), the installation runs through, but if I try to start normcap afterwards, it fails with ModuleNotFoundError.

@dynobo:

if I download the PKGBUILD-files and build + install locally, it works flawless

Right, so what's the problem, then?

running the same through AUR

What does that mean?

@yochananmarqos: I'm up-to-date with Arch Stable, still I'm getting the same error as reported by @Tio and @archisman:

$ pamac list --installed | grep normcap
normcap        0.3.15-2        AUR          142,8 kB

$ normcap
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/normcap", line 5, in <module>
    from normcap.app import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'normcap'

Interestingly, if I download the PKGBUILD-files and build + install locally, it works flawless. But running the same through AUR results in the error above. I don't get it...

Any ideas for further testing?

I see thank you very much for the input.

@Tio: You're not up to date, that's why. When using AUR packages, you're expected to be up to date with the Arch Stable branch. If you're using Manjaro, the Unstable branch is on par with Arch Stable.

After the latest update when I try to open it I get:

~ >>> normcap                                                               [1]

@yochananmarqos: Thanks for your reply. Yes, it is with 0.3.15-2.

As normcap itself is a Qt6 application could it be, that if normcap is the first/only Qt6 application on the system, the user ends up with missing qt6-wayland?

(I recently wiped my system, so it might be that I'm in that situation)

yochananmarqos commented on 2023-01-21 17:38 (UTC)

@dynobo: qt6-wayland is optional for qt6-base. If one uses Qt 6 programs with a Wayland session, they should install it.

I can't reproduce the error. Did you update to 0.3.15-2?

dynobo commented on 2023-01-21 17:17 (UTC)

Turns out I was missing qt6-wayland. I don't know if this is a new requirement, or it got uninstalled somehow, but installing it fixed that issue. Maybe it should be added as an (optional?) dependency to the AUR package?

However, I'm getting the same ModuleNotFoundError as @archisman now...
