Is it possible that we're hitting https://bugs.python.org/issue36630 https://bugs.python.org/issue36982 (same bug, one is a duplicate).

test_curses doesn't like ncurses 6.1

I don't know how about how to read python test output so I couldn't convince myself that we're hitting that bug but adding test_curses to the excluded tests list. check() passes for me now.

Like oldshortcut said, I was also able to update python2 with running the following yay command:

yay -S python2 --mflags "--nocheck"

Did not need to add gpg keys

I've tried compiling on 3 different machines, with and without chroot, all segfault and fail to build:

segfault at 0 ip 00007fe8cb2c8164 sp 00007ffd147290e8 error 4 in _testcapi.so[7fe8cb2c8000+6000]

I was able to update python2 with running the following yay command on two systems

$ yay -S python2 --mflags "--nocheck"

Thank you for maintaining this package! I use it for the healing filter in GIMP.

gpg --keyserver pgp.mit.edu --recv-keys 04C367C218ADD4FF

and

paru

does the trick for me.

Thank you for your work.

In my case "sudo pacman ..." didn't help, but "gpg recv-keys 04C367C218ADD4FF" without sudo or pacman did it.

Case_Of commented on 2022-09-25 18:22 (UTC)

I did start with makepkg -sirc --asdeps --nocheck but it seems it did not take the --nocheck option. What did I do wrong here?

@zeroconf patches welcome :)

I just uninstalled it as I have also python v3.x. Hoping no one program needs it. There were no dependencies, when uninstalling. Lots of people updating via AUR helper, hard to explain, why suddenly one package is not capable for that. I guess this should be fixed as other packages can be installed via AUR helper, e.g. yay is used here.
