The flag was invalid and has been removed with no action taken as no new version was released. There's nothing to do for this package; no new release has been made. Rebuild, as @eclairevoyant has said.

Found just out, that an additional dependendcy has rised: python-pytz

Could you please verify / check - and possibly update the PKGBUILD?

@sleeping Yes, as commented by me at 2018-08-13 04:55

Just for information, I had to rebuild few packages in this order to be able to launch ocrmypdf 7.0.3:

yaourt -S python-ruffus

yaourt -S python-pikepdf

yaourt -S python-xmp-toolkit

yaourt -S img2pdf-git

$ ocrmypdf --version

7.0.3

@fbrennan I was using setuptools_scm_git_archive a few years ago, but it was causing some problems (details of which I don't remember), so I removed it. Maybe I should try it again.

Either way, easiest thing to do is wait for PyPI. Normally it's only 20 minutes behind Github.

@jbarlow At least with the way we're building it right now, we can't build Github tarballs due to a known issue in setuptools (or in Github?). Apparently setuptools puts its metadata inside the Git repository, and because Github's tarballs don't include a git repository, the package won't build from Github.

Last night I found out that I could patch your setup.py (see https://pypi.org/project/setuptools_scm_git_archive/ for details) and force it to build anyway, but I thought by that point I must be doing something wrong and you never intended for downstream packagers to do something like that, so decided to wait for PyPI.

Aww, thanks everyone. :)

v7.0.3 is PyPI as of a few days. Normally Github and PyPI are nearly in lockstep, but Travis was having network problems last weekend and failed to deploy v7.0.3 to PyPI (which it does for me). PyPI releases are just distributions of the tagged releases on Github. It's a little better to use PyPI's sdist since it is smaller than a Github checkout.

Check https://pypi.org/project/ocrmypdf/#files

Thank you everyone. Maintaining the package is the least I could do because I use ocrympdf a lot, and I found the developer extremely cordial and helpful when I had a problem with it while OCR'ing an Esperanto PDF.

Regarding version 7.0.3, someone flagged the package over this, that version is not yet on PyPI. As far as I know, what's on Github is development, while what's on PyPI is stable. So I'm assuming 7.0.3 is beta since it's not yet on PyPI. As soon as it is on PyPI I will update the PKGBUILD.

If my understanding of this is wrong, feel free to enlighten me.

Thanks to the maintainers and jbarlow for this utility is clearly ULTIMATE (necessary, indispensable, decisive for manipulating PDF files).

I've used the git version of img2pdf, rebuild some AUR packages (python-pikepdf, pybind11, pngquant...) and it works great :D
