Re: The tests take a very long time to run.

When I adopted this package, checks were disabled. Upon enabling them, I saw a large number of failures. Leaving the checks enabled will prevent problems from going unnoticed.

Users who rebuild frequently may not need to run checks after every build. They may opt for one of the following:

  • Pass the --nocheck option to makepkg to skip the tests.
  • Configure makepkg to disable checks by default.
    • Edit the BUILDENV array in /etc/makepkg.conf.
    • Occasionally use the --check option.

Hi, python2-xcffib>=0.1.6 should be changed to 0.1.8, because latest git commit wont work with 0.1.6 version anymore. Until this is fixed, building qtile is possible by changing the source line in PKGBUILD so it will use an old commit: source=('git://github.com/qtile/qtile.git#commit=bae4b9e00decd168d43201ab722f79a5be40f6ee')

I just attempted the same with qtile-python3-git, and I'm getting the same error. I'm 90% sure it's the network that I'm on. So I'll run my Arch-USB on a different machine/network, and it should work
