@jghodd It's the same thing, actually.

youknowone/python-deadlib is not actually a single package, but a collection of small packages (like standard-aifc on PyPI). The AUR package used to be named python-deadlib, but there's no single module named deadlib in there. So, when it was moved to extra, it became a split package using the same naming from PyPI. This also aligns better with how upstream declares the dependency.

In your case, please remove python-deadlib because that's not a package in AUR anymore. Then install the deadlib packages from the official repos.

Getting a build error:

I'm unable to install python-standard-aifc because it conflicts with python-deadlib which is required by python-speechrecognition. Is there some other way to get the aifc module?

Are we missing a dependency, or has a dependency changed?

Hi! Tests are still included in the package at "${pkgdir}"/usr/lib/python*/site-packages/tests, causing conflicts with lieer (which shouldn't have these either). See Test directory in site-package.

Is provides=('python-speech_recognition') required? This is not needed by any other pkg

Thanks

Please revert commit: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=python-speechrecognition&id=8c1ee997e22bb480e932b36ac4387b0def1687de

See pinned comment of python-deadlib.

@vvch thanks, I added some cleanup commands but can't test it currently, please let me know if there are further problems

vvch commented on 2025-03-11 06:55 (UTC)

Stores files directly to

/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/tests/

like

/usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/tests/init.py /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/tests/pycache/ /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/tests/pycache/init.cpython-313.opt-1.pyc /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/tests/pycache/init.cpython-313.pyc /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages/tests/pycache/test_audio.cpython-313.opt-1.pyc

which seems to be not good and may conflict with other packages

@That1Calculator done, thanks for the report
