update with modern python packaging standards:

build() {
    cd "${_pkgname}-${pkgver}"
    python -m build --wheel --no-isolation
}
package() {
    cd "${_pkgname}-${pkgver}"
    python -m installer --destdir="$pkgdir" dist/*.whl
}

I've patched setup.py to get it to compile with newer versions of python.

The upstream project appears to be unmaintained. There hasn't been a release in 4 years or even a code commit for over a year.

Unfortunately, the build process for this package is getting quite old (note the "setup.py install" deprecation warning), so I don't know how much longer this package will continue to work before the build & install steps need to be redone from scratch.

Just wondering if anybody's had any success getting ubertooth-btbr to work. I ended up having to build from source as for some reason it's not included in this package, and even then it just hung after running.

Huh, I could have sworn that used to be correct at some point. Either way, I've confirmed that you are correct and updated the package.

Thank you PeterIkles :)

Seems like there is a typo in the 'optdepends' section, it has python-pyqt instead of python-qtpy

Updated to 2020-12-R1 (I've subscribed to the github release page, so I should get notified on new releases from now on)

Release Notes: https://github.com/greatscottgadgets/ubertooth/releases/tag/2020-12-R1

Package Update Notes:

  • extern-packet_counter_max patch removed (thank you shaeferpp for the reminder)

  • python-qtpy added to opt-depends as ubertooth-specan-ui requires it

  • I don't know if the Christmas lights thing (ubertooth-util -x) works as it just exits for me and I'm not sure what it's supposed to do.

Remember update your ubertooth's firmware with one of the following (you may need sudo):

  • ubertooth-dfu -d /usr/share/ubertooth/ubertooth-one-firmware-bin/bluetooth_rxtx.dfu -r

  • ubertooth-dfu -d /usr/share/ubertooth/ubertooth-one-firmware-bin/bluetooth_rx_only.dfu -r

In December a new version of this library, 2020-12-R1, was released. As this release already contains the extern-packet_counter_max patch, this patch can be dropped when updating the PKGBUILD to this version. I managed to install the latest version using this PKGBUILD by updating pkgver, _pkgver and of course the sha256sums and removing the patch. These changes (and the new ubertooth firmware) worked for me.

I've replaced libusbx with libusb.

I also applied the patch from https://github.com/greatscottgadgets/ubertooth/issues/408 as the build was failing without it. Hopefully they release a new version soon.

Hey guys, sorry it took so long, but I've patched the PKGBUILD for python3 (thank you GI-Jack).
