@pizzaman - I don't think it is currently possible to upgrade to pyside6/qt6-base. Please see this from the project maintainer: https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/pull/691

Thanks for maintaining this package.
It would benefit from updating some dependencies:
qt5-base->qt6-base
pyside2->pyside6
pyside2-tools->pyside6-tools
poetry-code=2.1.2

Dependency python-noiseprotocol-git is no longer needed and will be deleted as python-noiseprotocol is now available in the extra repository please update.

@bitcoinlizard - thank you. I get a build-error with python-cbor - shared here https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-cbor

I filed a request with upstream regarding the bitbox dep - https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/issues/675

@hossbeast - Thank you for pointing out this issue. python-protobuf was a missing dependency in this PKGBUILD. I have pushed a new revision with python-protobuf and a couple of other missing dependencies. This should resolve your issue.

Indeed, python-bitbox02 seems like an odd required dependency but this is listed as a dependency by upstream:

https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/blob/master/pyproject.toml

I don't know what the problem is, but I can see with strace, that error is printed after opening a file that's part of bitbox

/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/bitbox02/communication/generated/hww_pb2.py

I can rebuild and re-install the package with python-bitbox02 removed from depends, then remove python-bitbox2 from the system, and then I can then use hwi to interact with my device, though I need to ignore this warning,

WARNING:root:No module named 'bitbox02', required for bitbox02. Ignore if you do not want this device.

It seems like bitbox is actually an optional dependency, and it kind of stands out in the dependency list as the only one pertaining to one particular vendor.

Also, even with that done, hwi-qt fails to run without the bitbox02 dependency installed.

Is the build missing a step to generate some python protobuf code?

% hwi enumerate
Run `make py` to generate the protobuf messages

% which hwi
/usr/bin/hwi

% pacman -Qo /usr/bin/hwi
/usr/bin/hwi is owned by python-hwilib 2.2.1-1

% pacman -Qi python-hwilib
Name            : python-hwilib
Version         : 2.2.1-1
Build Date      : Sat 01 Apr 2023 10:46:23 AM PDT
Install Date    : Sat 01 Apr 2023 10:46:27 AM PDT

I used yay --rebuildtree to clean build python-hwilib and all dependencies

@RealOrRandom - Sorry about that. Pacaur doesn't seem to mind or I would have fixed it sooner. You should be all set. Thanks for letting me know.
