Arch Linux User Repository

In that case I'll switch python-quamash for python-qasync when I get a chance to update this package.

Seems to be working very well. I submitted a PR to the gh repo with qasync as the dependency.

Unless python-qasync can provide the python-quamash API exactly, probably not. You may need to use the -git package.

@daviding; you can build quamash with my comment just below yours over there. Also, the quamash-git is up to date with that fix.

Lastly, @kbumsik, apparently, there exists qasync (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-qasync-git) which is a maintained fork of quamash. Would it be possible to use this instead of quamash?

The dependency on quamash is failing.

I have left a comment over at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/python-quamash#comment-871648

I've tried my hand at cleaning up this PKGBUILD, please let me know if this works for you.

Same error as in the out of date flag:

fatal: repository '/home/nico/.cache/yay/virtscreen/src' does not exist
==> ERROR: Failure while creating working copy of src git repo
    Aborting...
error making: virtscreen

Only works if installed manually with makepkg on Manjaro, does not build via yay. Same problem as reported by other users.

Please change the dependency from python-quamash-git to python-quamash. That way either package can be chosen with an AUR helper during install.

What is $_pkgname_camelcase? There's no reason for a variable that's only used once, especially when it's nonsensical and longer than the value.

EDIT: Here's a proper package using the setup.py:

pkgname=virtscreen
pkgver=0.3.1
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Make your iPad/tablet/computer as a secondary monitor on Linux"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="https://github.com/kbumsik/VirtScreen"
license=('GPL')
depends=('xorg-xrandr' 'x11vnc' 'python-pyqt5' 'qt5-quickcontrols2' 'python-quamash' 'python-netifaces')
makedepends=('python-setuptools')
optdepends=('arandr: for display settings option')
source=("$pkgname-$pkgver.tar.gz::https://github.com/kbumsik/VirtScreen/archive/$pkgver.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('345c9333a0129db660d07687fbfa479fd69bf9fe387510b987207463c7a55257')

build() {
    cd "VirtScreen-$pkgver"
    python setup.py build
}

package() {
    cd "VirtScreen-$pkgver"
    python setup.py install --root="$pkgdir/" --optimize=1 --skip-build
}

That's what I thought too, but emptying the cache doesn't make any difference whatsoever.
