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.

I'm having trouble with installing qtile. I went through the process of installing all the dependancies needed without problem. Then when I ran 'makepkg -s' on qtile-git, it started trying to retrieve a file from github, and never succeded. Is there any instalation guides other than what's on your site?

@eigengrau: yeah, updated

eigengrau commented on 2014-10-06 07:03 (UTC)

The current develop expressly wants python2-xcffib>=0.1.6

eigengrau commented on 2014-10-04 06:01 (UTC)

Working nicely, thanks!

Chenkar commented on 2014-10-03 20:02 (UTC)

Ok thanks for your reply. I'll just use this one.

RogerDuran commented on 2014-10-03 17:00 (UTC)

it's the same as qtile-git, it use the development branch of qtile.. if you want an stable version, you should use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/qtile/

Chenkar commented on 2014-10-03 14:33 (UTC)

Is this the same as the other? I'd like to use this one cause i only know python3, but i'm afraid that this might not be as stable as the other because of it's very recent submission date.

RogerDuran commented on 2014-10-03 12:10 (UTC)

Done, if you get a conflict installing python2-cairocffi, it's because python-cairocffi-xcffib-git didn't conflict with python-cairocffi.. So you could just pacman -Rd python2-cairocffi-xcffib-git before installing python2-cairocffi or if you want, update python2-cairocffi-xcffib-git before installing qtile-git/python2-cairocffib

RogerDuran commented on 2014-10-03 11:40 (UTC)

yeah, i have to replace python2-cairocffi-xcffib-git with python2-cairocffi, the release of cairocffi merged the xcffi patches, so we don't need or update the git of cairocffi

eigengrau commented on 2014-10-03 06:59 (UTC)

That is with python2-cairocffi-xcffib-git at 160.132098d
