The package was missing compiled python modules prior to version 2.18.0-2. Thanks goes to @ChrisTX for the hint. If you encounter errors like these

tuned: /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/tuned/__pycache__/__init__.cpython-310.pyc exists in filesystem
tuned: /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/tuned/__pycache__/consts.cpython-310.pyc exists in filesystem

when updating, append

--overwrite /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/tuned/__pycache__\* --overwrite /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/tuned/\*/__pycache__\*

to your pacman or AUR helper command when installing/updating.

Due to the upgrade of the Python version, you may need to rebuild the package and install it again.

@everyx imo conflicts should be added if otherwise the package isn't installable due conflicts on the filesystem but not necessarily if functionality overlaps. Since all these packages depend on a systemd service to be active it should be up to the user if packages are installed at the same time and what services are started.

Should we add conflict with power-profiles-daemon and cpupower?

@ChrisTX Thanks for the contribution. I didn't know about this.

The package is creating __pycache__ orphans: Any package containing Python modules needs to precompile them, otherwise running them will create orphaned files in the __pycache__ folder.

Not only will the files not be properly refreshed, but they also remain after upgrading python versions, causing a lot of orphaned files.

This can be easily fixed by adding

python -m compileall -d /usr/lib "$pkgdir/usr/lib"
python -O -m compileall -d /usr/lib "$pkgdir/usr/lib"

in the package() step. Compare what was done in libxml2 by the Arch devs, PKGCONFIG and the related announcement.

@SunRed: Instead of farting around in the package() function, do this in a prepare() function instead:

prepare() {
    cd "${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
    mv libexec lib

    sed -i 's/libexec/lib/g' Makefile
    sed -i 's/sbin/bin/g' Makefile
}

@STiNG Yes, I had that error as well and the issue was a python-configobj version (5.0.6-10) where downgrading to the previous version (5.0.6-9) helped fix it temporarily. There is a new version out now that fixes the issue. In addition to that I updated the tuned package to the latest version. :)

Getting this error: tuned-adm active Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/tuned-adm", line 29, in <module> from tuned.utils.global_config import GlobalConfig File "/usr/lib/python3.9/site-packages/tuned/utils/global_config.py", line 3, in <module> from validate import Validator ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'validate'

@aorth please take a look at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/tuned-git/ and discussion there for a proper list of dependencies needed (aside of python version).
