Arch Linux User Repository

Please remember, that this package uses DKMS for building the kernel module and as such requires the kernel headers for your kernel installed. See also https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Dynamic_Kernel_Module_Support

Another manual step that needs to be taken is adding your user to the plugdev group, e.g. using the command sudo gpasswd -a $USER plugdev.

This package has 1 AUR-only dependency, python-notify2 which you might need to install manually as AUR helpers often have problems with this package.

Like DJ9 and others, it's still telling me it can't find python-notfiy2. I update using pacman -Syu checked my pacman.conf, the extra repository is there and not commented out, but still can't find the package. Any fixes?

Edit: found a fix that worked: https://www.reddit.com/r/ManjaroLinux/comments/j57y1t/help_installing_openrazer/g8uuc78/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3

The package is not missing, it's here: https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-notify2/

Looks like your local package database is severely out of date.

This package currently has a issue regarding missing a dependency for pyton-notify2.

If you try to install the package as recommended on https://openrazer.github.io/ and follow the Arch recommended install via pacaur, here's the outcome:

:: Package openrazer-meta not found in repositories, trying AUR... :: resolving dependencies... :: no results found for python-notify2 (dependency tree: openrazer-daemon python-notify2)

So, yes.. this is a bug WhyNotHugo. Also, I have the extra repository enabled, still the same.

There's nothing to fix. Just install the package normally.

So how will it be fixed?

python-notify2 has been moved to the [extra] repository which is why it's no longer available in the AUR.

Ok, so apparently the package python-notify2 doesn't exist anymore. But there is one called python2-notify2. Since the package is missing I can't install this package. yay -S python-notify2 -> Could not find all required packages: python-notify2 (Target)

@Spixmaster: I was experiencing the same issue as well. I was able to get around this and get the AUR package installed by using:

yay -S python-notify2

From there, I followed the rest of the installation instructions, and I was good to go! I hope this helps.

I use the AUR helper yay. Why does it have problems with the installation of the AUR dependency python-notify2? The installation cannot be completed because of that.

@z3ntu: It worked when I tried after rebooting.
