@oriba: Looks like the package is looking for python-flit-core less than 4, but greater than or equal to 3.2. I think this package is toast. I wonder if most of its depends would work with python-pypdf?

Just tried to built the package:

pacman offers python-flit-core-4.0.0-1 which I have installed.

Please use spdx license identifier

python, python-typing_extensions and python-pillow should be in depends

^ But maybe it really does have those dependencies?

Done, it build w/o issue in a clean chroot. I didn't bump pkgrel though.

I can't remember why I set this back from 3.0.0 to 2.11.2. Perhaps that issue was later fixed with 3.0.1? Anyhow, let's see if any of those dependent packages complain. @fryfrog, you should remove python-setuptools from the makedepends and I don't think any of those depends are required either?

fryfrog commented on 2024-07-15 16:51 (UTC)

I see that in the past comments, looks like 2.12.1 is suggested. I don't actually use anything that depends on this, so let's see what @bulletmark thinks?

Thanks for taking care fryfrog.
Though there may be another downgrade necessary. There was in the past a report, that the 3.0 series is broken and therefore the last 2.x release was chosen:

Thanks for orphaning it @TurtleRuss, I adopted it and added @bulletmark as a co-maintainer. :)
