From official GNOME docs:

"Attention: PyGTK 2.24 will be the last release in the PyGTK series and will support the full GTK-2-24 API. PyGTK should not be used for new projects and existing PyGTK applications are recommended to be ported to PyGObject. See here for more information."

https://wiki.gnome.org/Projects/PyGTK/WhatsNew224

Please stop asking me to update this package. I only "keep" it, so that it is not messed with by others, as some older applications still rely on it to function.

Thank you.

pygobject-devel provides bindings for GTK. Upstream moved pygtk to pygobject.

would it be possible to update to python 3.x instead of 2.7 ?

I've tested this on a clean Arch Linux Docker Image, it builds and installs fine. Make sure base-devel is installed and your system is up to date.

FROM imrehg/archlinux-makepkg:latest
RUN sudo pacman -Syu --noconfirm
RUN yay -S --noconfirm pygtk
RUN yay -Qi pygtk

Currently compilation keeps on failing with the error

@rkelly: That's a pikaur specific error, nothing to do with this package. Ask the programmer, in the meantime use makepkg, as is intended.

Have been seeing this error for some time now. Seems similar to other reports, but I have yet to find where my cache directory is.

Can't pull 'pygtk' in '/home/user/.local/share/pikaur/aur_repos/pygtk' from AUR:

error: Pulling is not possible because you have unmerged files.
hint: Fix them up in the work tree, and then use 'git add/rm <file>'
hint: as appropriate to mark resolution and make a commit.
fatal: Exiting because of an unresolved conflict.

:: Try recovering?

[r] remove dir and clone again
[s] skip this package

No.

Is it possible for you to read the documentation on how to use makepkg? https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg#Usage

That being said, I'm extremely curious how you failed to install the prerequisites, but didn't have errors after installing pkgconf but still failing to have patch, gcc, make, or fakeroot installed.

Is it possible for pkg-config ( https://pkg-config.freedesktop.org/releases/?C=M;O=D ) to be added as a dependency for pygtk? A few days ago when an update of pygtk was released, I was unable to update it because the building process failed every time I tried. After installing pkg-config from the the above link (0.29.2) the building process succeeded. It seems pkg-config is a dependency that is not listed here.

Thanks @telmo, that helped. :)

Was getting error merging pygtk, had to rm -rf ~/.cache/yay/pygtk before I could update the package. Of course that applies only if you use yay.
