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 :)

No, reinstalling the non-git version would not have fixed it. Rebuilding would have. Conflating these two very different things is one of the main reasons why I dislike most AUR helpers.

Reinstalling the non-git version would've fixed it as well. Installing -git PKGBUILDs makes you more prone to these issues in the future as they're less likely to be updated when a python version change occurs.

As @db20eic pointed out, the virtualenv-tools3 was build for another python, thats why it crashes. My solution was to install the -git¹ version of it, which will be build with the default python version on my system.

To elaborate on the virtualenv_tools issue: the AUR package in question is python-virtualenv-tools3. A reinstall (including removing first) does not fix the issue. The package just crashes straightaway when called on the command line too.

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.

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:
