Some of the astropy affiliated packages can't build with astropy_helpers 3.2 right now. If you meet some errors like No such file or directory: '... astropy_helpers/commands/src/compiler.c', please use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-astropy-helpers31/ instead.

@o1911 I see. You mean the patch should also be in the source.

Hi, thanks for the package. Can the following changes be made, to allow for more robust building? Otherwise, a naive build will fail with a custom BUILDDIR specified in /etc/makepkg.conf

[code] -source=("https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/a/astropy-helpers/astropy-helpers-${pkgver}.tar.gz") -md5sums=('0e7b7e284be43946ec74e9f3b59af726') +source=("https://files.pythonhosted.org/packages/source/a/astropy-helpers/astropy-helpers-${pkgver}.tar.gz" + "astropy_helpers.patch") +md5sums=('0e7b7e284be43946ec74e9f3b59af726' + 'd948d609321d1bd7239be90af8e53045')

build() { cd ${srcdir}/astropy-helpers-${pkgver} - patch -p1 -i ../../astropy_helpers.patch + patch -p1 -i ${srcdir}/astropy_helpers.patch [/code]

EDIT: I can't work out how to get the code block to show up nicely!

Thanks! The patch is updated for python3.7.

Hi, sorry for the bothering. But the patch need update like this: http://fars.ee/Rh-f Hope you will update it ASAP. Thanks

The patch of this package need update for python3.7 (/usr/lib/python3.7 instead of /usr/lib/python3.6).

The python3 version of astropy in AUR has already updated to 3.0. So it might be OK to upgrade this package to 3.0 as well. The patch file alse needs a small change: http://fars.ee/QRnB , as the build_sphinx.py is slightly different in version 3.0.

BTW, don't upgrade python2-astropy-helpers to version 3.0, as 3.0 is not py2 compatible.

@migueldvb Works well, thanks!

Thank you for the patch. I think it is better to split into two astropy-helpers source packages for python and python2 and define different paths. Please let me know if the current PKGBUILD works for you.

While using this build of astropy_helpers to build docs for some Astropy Affiliated Packages, it would get an error: 

  File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/astropy_helpers/commands/build_sphinx.py", line 130, in run

 ah_path = os.path.abspath(ah_importer.path)

AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'path'

One way to fix that is to edit the file mentioned above like this patch: http://fars.ee/tGcG

For python2 version it should be '/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/astropy_helpers' instead of python3.6.

However your PKGBUILD describes a split package, so it might not be easy to fix that, as you need to edit the source differently for different package...Do you have any idea for this?
