If you have low computational power, high networking power, build a lot of Arch machines. I think it's useful, just that it needs a little bit more of caring

Why does this package need to exist? Python never provided a binary release of python2, and it's not like python2 is going to be changing anytime soon; should be able to just build it once using the python2 AUR package and not worry about it for a while.

Module select also appers to be missing. Also, there is a considerable size difference in the built package. Might be an indication of an improper build.

There's something wrong here. The standard libraries are missing files.

>>> import struct
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "struct.py", line 1, in <module>
    from _struct import *
ImportError: No module named _struct

I checked the tarball from the PKGBUILD and it has the same problem as my system. struct.py looks like this:

from _struct import *
from _struct import _clearcache
from _struct import __doc__

and _struct.py does not exist.

I experience no such issue with the python2 aur package.

Updated pkgbuild

vixalien commented on 2022-10-11 10:58 (UTC)

doesn't it conflict with python2?
