@sanerb's PKGBUILD builds for me, but I needed to add python-hatchling and python-hatch-vcs to the makedepends. I also had to add mkdir -p "$pkgdir"/etc/target to the package() function

And I when I try to run targetcli I get ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'rtslib_fb.utils'; 'rtslib_fb' is not a package. I had to downgrade python-rtslib-fb to v2.1.76 and that fixed it.

PKGBUILD for v3.0.0 (probably needs further work):

Hello, please consider dropping python-ethtool optdepend, it's dead upstream and fails to build with python3.12.

Updated for 2.1.56

As of yesterday, Version 2.1.56 is available

This is already fixed in upstream, they just didn't release new version: https://github.com/open-iscsi/configshell-fb/commit/f3ac914861bd605e3d634aeeb5e706abdbd39259

This is not targetcli bug, this is configshell-fb bug.

Here's quick workaround: https://github.com/pyinvoke/invoke/issues/833#issuecomment-1396931531

The python package has been updated to 3.11 and targetcli no longer works.

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/targetcli", line 24, in <module>
    from targetcli import UIRoot
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'targetcli'

I run makepkg -si and the library is placed in the 3.11 path, but I am getting the following error

The same problem occurs when I install targetcli-fb using pip in python 3.11, but not in 3.10 built with pyenv, so this is most likely an upstream compatibility issue.

I think you need to add python 3.10 to the dependencies of this package or make it work in some other way.

[Errno 20] Not a directory: '/sys/kernel/config/target/iscsi/cpus_allowed_list' Anyone else encounter this error? I get this on block delete.

now checksum is failing
