I have this with other packages too, did this change recently?

pip should not be used in a PKGBUILD. Please use @hottea's solution to eliminate it.

Building the pkg from the source is preferred when possible. I create a PKGBUILD you could refer to.

Updated to version 2.2.0. Removed the license conflict.

@motherofmilk

2.1.16-2 should also fix your issue with the license file. no, I still get

install: will not overwrite just-created '/home/max/.cache/yay/python-pyvips/pkg/python-pyvips/usr/share/licenses/python-pyvips/LICENSE.txt' with '/home/max/.cache/yay/python-pyvips/pkg/python-pyvips/LICENSE.txt'

In fact, after the curl call :

./pkg/python-pyvips/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pyvips-2.1.16.dist-info/LICENSE.txt
./pkg/python-pyvips/LICENSE.txt

So install is trying to install 2 files under the same path… which fail.

For my part I just removed the curl call (so it's ./pkg/python-pyvips/usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/pyvips-2.1.16.dist-info/LICENSE.txt that is install under ./pkg/python-pyvips/usr/share/licenses/python-pyvips/LICENSE.txt).

@hrehfeld 2.1.16-2 should also fix your issue with the license file.

Updated to 2.1.16 and switched to curl for the license file.

Builds fine if I remove the last two commands regarding LICENSE.

I'm getting this in all cases of:

• deleted pikaur cache
• yay
• fresh install
