The check() function fails under pytest 9 with:

pytest.PytestRemovedIn9Warning: The (path: py.path.local) argument is deprecated, please use (collection_path: pathlib.Path)
see https://docs.pytest.org/en/latest/deprecations.html#py-path-local-arguments-for-hooks-replaced-with-pathlib-path

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in check().
    Aborting...

This is a boltons conftest/plugin using the deprecated py.path.local hook argument, which pytest 9 treats as an error. Arch Linux rolling ships pytest 9, so any fresh build hits this.

A workaround for the PKGBUILD would be to add -W ignore::pytest.PytestRemovedIn9Warning to the pytest invocation in check(), or to add filterwarnings = ["ignore::pytest.PytestRemovedIn9Warning"] in pytest.ini/pyproject.toml.

This failure cascades to downstream AUR packages (python-click-extra, meta-package-manager) that depend on python-boltons.

Reproduced on Python 3.14.3, boltons 25.0.0-2, Arch Linux rolling (greyltc/archlinux-aur:yay). CI logs: https://github.com/kdeldycke/meta-package-manager/actions/runs/23897036306/job/69684170316 (search for error making: python-boltons).

I receive this error when attempting to install:

It looks good, thanks. From packaging perspective I think it would be better to switch to standard PEP 517 build:

@micwoj92 Added in latest pkgrel. Please let me know if there are any other issues.

Please use spdx license identifier.

@ejedev I was able to install this packages with "--nocheck" on the makepkg!

ejedev commented on 2025-02-08 22:13 (UTC)

@Dominiquini I am unfortunately unable to replicate this on my machine or in a test container/VM. Will continue to try and look into it.

@ejedev: Python 3.12.7 (Installed from the default repositories (core). I'm using EndeavourOS!

ejedev commented on 2024-11-03 19:57 (UTC)

@Dominiquini I just tried building in a fresh archlinux Docker container (Python 3.12.7, pytest-8.3.3) and haven't been able to replicate this issue. What version of Python are you using?
