For people not using redis: there is now an "automated patching mechanism" that will instead use the next best fork of redis that is available on your system as the Requires= dependency in *.service. This way, anyone can use their favorite fork of it. Keep in mind that upstream does not explicitly say that forks of redis work as well, and this further makes the built paperless-ngx-venv package non-portable. Happy experimenting :)

Thanks @shtrophic that's interesting to know. That's not uncommon sadly for packages with deep dependency wells. Can I ask how often it would tend to blow up? Was it my chance a former iteration of paperless or paperless-ng? Is the current paperless-ngx project perhaps doing better about dependency management?

shtrophic commented on 2026-02-12 16:03 (UTC)

Well previously there was a non-venv variant, which was a total dependency shitshow because upstream seldomly updates their dependencies...

alerque commented on 2026-02-12 15:59 (UTC)

Has anybody tried getting this spun up as a bare metal package (not a venv)? I'd be interested in getting this into official repos if we can develop sane packaging for it.

@ einsiedlerkrebs

This is not a significant issue. You have a package called virtualenv_tools that was built for python3.13, which is not currently in the python3.14 environment.

You simply need to reinstall this package, and then the installation of paperless-ngx-env should run again.

With kind regards Bernd

With python3.14 I am getting the following error.

I'm getting checksum mismatches for 2.20.5

CountMurphy commented on 2026-01-16 22:01 (UTC)

Confirmed on needing granian updated. Thanks @mroethke!

I had to update granian for paperless-webserver to work with python 3.14

Getting an import error when attempting to rebuild for the latest version of Python:

EDIT: I needed to rebuild more of the underlying dependencies. Disregard!

sudo -u paperless paperless-manage migrate fails with a Permission denied: '../paperless.conf' because I was in my home directory. Running cd / before fixes it. Maybe add it to the /usr/bin/paperless-manage wrapper?
