@obessedLeopard6, rust builds need wifi to download stuff from cargo

This build does not work without network access.

Anyone using this package can update to the latest version using this PKGBUILD. The author has switched to rust from python. Must run a recent version of rust.

Thanks @cdown, can confirm it works after rebuild.

tzupdate works just fine.

[root@roujiamo ~]# pacman -Q tzupdate
tzupdate 2.0.0-1
[root@roujiamo ~]# tzupdate
Set system timezone to Europe/Amsterdam.
[root@roujiamo ~]# type -p python
/usr/bin/python

As with every Python package from AUR, when the system python is upgraded you must rebuild Python packages to pick up new site-packages dir. Nothing different here.

Completely broken. Same error as in kflak's comment. Edit: My bad, package needed a rebuild due to a Python major version update; works now.

Khal and others have been getting similar errors lately.

@flamusdiu it says this in the message :-)

PermissionError: [Errno 13] Could not link "/etc/localtime" ([Errno 13] Permission denied: '/etc/localtime'). Are you root?

flamusdiu commented on 2018-12-16 14:36 (UTC)

A bit old: make sure you run "tzupdate" as root or run "tzupdate -p" as a normal user. If you attempt to run just "tzupdate" as a normal user it will error out (no checking if root before running the code).
