Per the Python package guidelines, you need to add python-build and python-installer to makedepends or else the package doesn't build and throws the errors /usr/bin/python: No module named build and /usr/bin/python: No module named installer.

And maybe also add --wheel --no-isolation to the build command.

Seems like it needs to depend on python-appdirs, I can't get ptpython to run without installing it.

ptpython don't need python-docopt

Looks like it depends on python-black as of version 3.0.9.

This package needs a rebuild for python 3.9.

Can't flag-notify this, but it looks like ptpython 3.0.0 was just released January 29th: https://pypi.org/project/ptpython/3.0.0/ -- It seems to build fine with just an update of the new download URL and hash!

It looks like support for python2 has been dropped, so the PKGBUILD can be simplified a bit. I suppose if anyone still wants a package for python2 you could clone this current version as a separate ptpython2 AUR package that's left pegged to 2.0.5 (or 2.0.6 if you want working ipython support) and then update this to be python 3 only.

My personal workaround:

ROOT="$HOME/.cache/custom_pkgs"
mkdir -p "$ROOT"
cd "$ROOT"
git clone https://github.com/jonathanslenders/ptpython
cd ptpython
virtualenv env --system-site-packages
source env/bin/activate
python setup.py install

Now I create a script in SCRIPT_PATH, which is accessible from my PATH:

SCRIPT_PATH=~/.local/bin/ptpython
echo "#!/bin/bash
source '$ROOT/ptpython/env/bin/activate'
python -m ptpython" > "$SCRIPT_PATH"
chmod +x "$SCRIPT_PATH"

@lrustand: It's not just the requirements' versioning blocking it from working on 3.0, the code requires a moderate amount of updating which doesn't appear to be merged-in/finished yet: https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/ptpython/pull/309 and https://github.com/prompt-toolkit/ptpython/tree/prompt-toolkit-3.0

I get an error when starting ptpython "The 'prompt_toolkit<2.1.0,>=2.0.8' distribution was not found and is required by ptpython". The current version of python-prompt_toolkit in community is 3.0.2-1. Could you update the version requirement so it works with the current version of prompt toolkit?

@wbthomason, right thanks!, it was a matter of patching my old ~/.ptpython/config.py, changing input_processor to key_processor.
