@zo0m if you had taken a moment before leaving this foul comment you may have noticed I've already added them to dependencies. If you are uncomfortable 'doing things by hand' perhaps this is not the operating system for you.

@envolution Well, if they are not mandatory, set them as optional. Why do they break the build? I don't need them in the system. And if they are mandatory, set them as required dependencies and let them be installed automatically. Why the hell should I do it by hand?

@zo0m those packages are in extra, you'll need to install them.

pacman -S qt5-quickcontrols2 python-numpy

Yes, i have

...

[extra]
SigLevel = PackageRequired
Include = /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist

...

@zo0M please confirm you have [extra] in /etc/pacman.conf

@ccorn thanks for the report and patch

I have this package hanging in the updates and it constantly crashes when trying to install. Fix it, please:

In chroot builds, _pythonpath does not get set properly, because when the chroot's makepkg reads PKGBUILD, Python has not been installed there yet. Consequently _pythonpath will be empty, the associated -I flags will be useless, numpy/arrayobject.h won't get found, and build() will fail.

Fix: Set _pythonpath not at top level, but at function level.

Please can you bump pkgrel for the new deps list change?

@envolution: I took your note about numpy as a suggestion and reinstalled it. And now I finally managed to compile pyside2: for some reason, some files got corrupted. Thanks.

PS: I'm not French, I'm Italian and the messages you read in my log were in italian ;-)

@leo72 you're missing python-numpy or it's not properly installed mais je ne parle pas français et je n'utilise pas Manjaro donc je ne suis pas sûr. joyeuses fêtes
