Arch Linux User Repository

Yes I have rebuilt all AUR packages which are dependencies of searxng-git as far as I can tell. And the rest of the python deps should have been taken care of by "bumps" in official packages. And I have rebuilt searxng-git against these (all of this before posting here.) No joy, unfortunately.
Edit: following your recommendation to downgrade python-httpcore to 0.17.3 did the trick. It now works, thanks. I had downgraded it at first but not that far back. python-httpcore most recent/official version is 1.0.5-1 so something seems amiss either upstream or this package needs a patch?

@stef204 I do not have any issue, here are just some suggestions. Did you try rebuild all old python packages searxng-git depends on and searxng-git itself that build against old python version 3.11? Maybe try paru --rebuild=tree searxng-git if you use paru as aur helper. Or use checkrebuild and manually rebuild all of them, so they will all build against new python version 3.12. Also see my old suggestions to you here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/searxng-git?O=20#comment-913191.

I think every time official arch repo bump python version, user should manually rebuild all AUR python packages that build against old python version. Some AUR maintainers will bump pkgrel in PKGBUILD so user don't need to manully rebuild the package one by one and a paru -Syu will rebuild automatically (because pkgrel is increased), e.g., https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=absolutely-proprietary&id=2bd27bd6d7ba35f380167c87373788340c697fad

I'll have a look this week-end and will fix it.

no longer starts after recent large python upgrade.
please see this ticket: https://github.com/searxng/searxng/issues/3453
any chance you can take a look?

The package is fixed.

@HLFH This pull request https://github.com/searxng/searxng/pull/3045 with this commit https://github.com/searxng/searxng/commit/d72fa99bd0a4d702a55188b07919ce5a764b1d6c deleted these lines https://github.com/searxng/searxng/commit/d72fa99bd0a4d702a55188b07919ce5a764b1d6c#diff-60f61ab7a8d1910d86d9fda2261620314edcae5894d5aaa236b821c7256badd7L57-L59 which I guess cause README.rst, requirements.txt, and requirements-dev.txt not exist in ${pkgdir}${_site_packages} dir which cause mv "${pkgdir}${_site_packages}"/{README.rst,requirements*,searx} in PKGBUILD here https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=searxng-git#n72 failed. Remove this line mv "${pkgdir}${_site_packages}"/{README.rst,requirements*,searx} will make PKGBUILD work again.

Note: I'm a hobbyist and I'm not familiar with python. I don't understand setup.py. I workaround the issue with trial and error. There maybe better way to fix the issue, for example, maybe you would like to move readme and requirements files from other places to ${pkgdir}${_site_packages}/searx dir. I note there's a searxng-2024.3.15+e2af3e497-py3.11.egg-info dir in ${pkgdir}${_site_packages} dir which contains some related info files, I'm not sure if it is new or it exist in the past. Myabe you can do sth. with it.

To reproduce the issue of build fail due to mv fail, run this command: git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/searxng-git.git && cd searxng-git && makepkg -s. Please make sure you can reproduce the issue before apply the patch. If you can't reproduce the issue, don't apply the patch, because the patch maybe worng and not a real fix and the issue maybe only happen to a few people including me. I guess the reason you can't reproduce the issue maybe related to --rebuild not actually do a clean build by redownlaod and clean rebuild the newest package, because it maybe use old cache of something. For me who use paru as aur helper, I sometimes need to remove dir in ~/.cache/paru/clone to actually redownload and rebuild the package to fix some other issues I met.

Anyway, here's the patch:

@HLFH I tried rebuilding and got the same error as AlexBocken

@vasqs Reinstall with a clean build? The module pytomlpp is present.
@AlexBocken Could you reinstall with a clean build?

You should both try pikaur AUR helper and the --rebuild flag:
pikaur -S --rebuild searxng-git.

By the way, I have updated the package version just in case to facilitate your rebuild.
I confirm searxng-git works without any issue.
So it would be great if you try rebuild or update, and tell me if it still does not work.
Thanks.

This does not build for a few weeks now. Please consider adjusting package(). Did upstream change something significantly for this to be caused? On a glance the files do not seem too important to me:
