so i have a pkgbuild for this package and i fixed the bootloader compilation issue and it's the latest version, v6.19 and it gets the file it needs straight from python's website. i'm not familiar with submitting packages on the aur and was wondering if i need to talk to the maintainer to see about submitting it?

Just FYI, no GNU / Linux package should need PyInstaller. Most if not all projects can be packaged without it.

For me it is still failing

I've disabled the tests.

@yochananmarqos

The build process runs the tests using the system python instance, and if user has >older PyInstaller installed there (in this case, 6.9.0), that ends up being used in the >tests.

Tested with archlinux:latest container:

building the 6.10.0 package in "clean" python environment works as expected building the 6.9.0 package first and installing it, then trying to build 6.10.0 package >fails as reported

Suggested solution:

I think the proper fix would be to change that pytest ... invocation in PKGBUILD into >python -m pytest ...; could be that other packages are using that (or are not running >tests at all).

The checksum is outdated again

PYTHONPATH="$(pwd)" did work on my machine

@fam007e: I can't reproduce in a clean chroot. However, I've skipped the isolation tests for now.
