Same problem with missing PyPDF2.pdf as TrialnError reported here also:

  File "/usr/bin/pdfnup", line 23, in <module>
    from pdfnup import *
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/pdfnup.py", line 36, in <module>
    from PyPDF2.pdf import PageObject, ContentStream
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyPDF2.pdf'

The current python-pypdf2 does not work with this:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pdfnup", line 23, in <module>
    from pdfnup import *
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/pdfnup.py", line 36, in <module>
    from PyPDF2.pdf import PageObject, ContentStream
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'PyPDF2.pdf'

Additionally there seems to incompatibilities with the base64 module.

That is something you need to tell upstream, dreieck.
And as the last release was 2012 good luck with this endeavour ;).

You need to switch away from using setup.py but instead use python-build and python-installer:

/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/setuptools/_distutils/cmd.py:66: SetuptoolsDeprecationWarning: setup.py install is deprecated.
!!

        ********************************************************************************
        Please avoid running ``setup.py`` directly.
        Instead, use pypa/build, pypa/installer, pypa/build or
        other standards-based tools.

        See https://blog.ganssle.io/articles/2021/10/setup-py-deprecated.html for details.

Adding an additional line

          -e 's/decodestring/b64decode/' \

to the sed-command in the PKGBUILD did the trick for me.

The problem is with pdfnup itself. A workaround is to change decodestring with decodebytes.

pdfnup is not working with python 3.9

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/pdfnup", line 23, in <module>
    from pdfnup import *
  File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/pdfnup.py", line 70, in <module>
    _mtA4Pdf = zlib.decompress(base64.decodestring(_mtA4PdfZip64.encode("ascii")))
AttributeError: module 'base64' has no attribute 'decodestring'
