@Dominiquini @vitaliikuzhdin Sorry we missed this dependency resolution error! python-click-extra@7.18.0-2 has the correct minimum version of python-click specified, but extra/python-click is a few releases behind this requirement. The best solution is to remain on python-click-extra@7.17.2-1 until extra/python-click@8.4.1 is available.

EDIT:

"we can remove constraint in python-click" => Yes! I made some refactor in Click Extra to relax the requirement on Click for packaging in GUIX (see: https://codeberg.org/guix/guix/pulls/8047#issuecomment-18152921 ). Nice side effect: you can benefits from it! :)

I think we can remove constraint in python-click dep as upstream project now requires at least click v8.3.1. see: https://github.com/kdeldycke/click-extra/commit/b86bb451724b543e761d482cb92167236437e23d

@vitaliikuzhdin: You're right! I had forgotten about that...

@bintoss, there's epoch=1 for that purpose. If you add it (or increase if already exists), it will be treated as a newer version by pacman. Keep in mind the wiki says it should only be used if deemed absolutely necessary. If you think python-click will be updated soon, I'd suggest to not do anything and just wait.

@bintoss: I think B is the best solution! I don't think it's possible to do a force push on AUR. This will resolve the problem for people unable to update to the version 7.18.0, but I don't think it's will downgrade who already update to the 7.18.0 version!

@Dominiquini I'm wondering what we should do until python-click is up-to-date. Paru is failing to update any AUR packages due to python-click-extra@7.18.0-2's failing dependency resolution. I'm considering the following:

A. Checkout and force-push v7.17.2-1, thereby removing 7.18.0-1 and -2 from the Git history.

B. Re-publish v7.17.2-1 as v7.17.2-2. This may be ignored if AUR helpers perform version checks and refuse to downgrade.

@vitaliikuzhdin: It was my mistake to update the package without checking for incompatibilities. I manually updated the 'python-click' package on my machine, so I didn't notice anything wrong!

The best solution is to remain on python-click-extra@7.17.2-1 until extra/python-click@8.4.1 is available.

Yes! That's the intended behavior I expect distribution to adopt: roll out new click-extra release as it fits your other dependencies. I am releasing click-extra early and often so I can test stuff that I later re-contribute to click itself.

@Dominiquini, I'd imagine this is caused by python-click from extra being outdated. Please don't rush to update when doing so clearly breaks the check() function for most Python packages: https://github.com/kdeldycke/click-extra/blob/v7.18.0/pyproject.toml#L91
