Today while updating I got this error:

==> Starting build()...
python: can't open file '/home/barry/.cache/yay/qutebrowser-git/src/qutebrowser/scripts/asciidoc2html.py': [Errno 2] No such file or directory

In case anyone else encounters this, the solution is to wipe your local git repo and build from a fresh clone. For yay, that means running yay -S qutebrowser-git and selecting [A]ll when asked about cleanBuild.

I can't speak for yay, but if you use a SRCDEST, then the git config will be out-of-date since the master branch was retired in favour of main. Manifests as:

==> Extracting sources...
  -> Creating working copy of qutebrowser git repo...
Cloning into 'qutebrowser'...
done.
warning: remote HEAD refers to nonexistent ref, unable to checkout

Simple fix:

sed -i 's:master:main:' "$SRCDEST/qutebrowser/HEAD"

@raffaem Works fine for me with yay. Given the "Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory", this sounds like an issue on your system.

It doesn't build anymore:

-> devel check for package failed:
'/usr/bin/git ls-remote https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser.git HEAD' encountered an error:
fatal: Unable to read current working directory: No such file or directory

I have tried to delete the cache and re-build, same error message.

I'm using yay.

[ RESOLVED ] To fix delete the qutebrowser-git folder from your Paru or Yay .cache folder and reinstall qutebrowser-git after updating all Python packages.

Qutebrowser no longer runs after latest Arch Linux Python 3.11 updates. I get the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.11/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 563, in from_name
    return next(cls.discover(name=name))
           ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
StopIteration

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Traceback (most recent call last):

    sys.exit(load_entry_point('qutebrowser==2.5.4', 'gui_scripts', 'qutebrowser')())

@dbeattyspace FWIW it looks like you did "sudo pip install PyQt5" at some point - this is a really bad idea and can mess up things, as you've seen :)

Instead, consider using a virtualenv (or in the case of qutebrowser, it's mkvenv.py script) if you need to install a package which isn't in the Arch repositories or AUR.

dbeattyspace commented on 2021-02-25 15:18 (UTC)

No packages own that directory on my system, but I figured out a workaround. I removed that directory sudo rm -rf /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5 and then re-installed python-pyqt5 and now everything is working normally.

WorMzy commented on 2021-02-25 15:04 (UTC)

No issues here. What package (if any) owns /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5/Qt/ on your system? It's not provided by any official package:

$ pacman -F /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5/Qt/; echo $?
1

dbeattyspace commented on 2021-02-25 14:46 (UTC)

I'm unable to launch this morning getting the following error message. I've tried downgrading python-pyqt5, recompiling the package, and using the non-git version in the community repo but none of those has fixed the issue. Anyone having a similar error that has found a fix?

/usr/bin/python3: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/PyQt5/Qt/plugins/platforms/../../lib/libQt5DBus.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZdlPvm, version Qt_5
