Спасибо, заработало, я ещё новичок в arch.

cameo: That's caused by the recent update from python3.9 to python3.10. When there's a new Python minor version, every Python package has to be rebuilt or it won't be installed in the 3.10 site_packages.

miramir: try a yay -Suy --rebuild-tree volctl. That will make sure you don't have a partial upgrade or version mismatch problem. If that fails, try installing manually following the instructions on https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_User_Repository.

instal python-importlib-metadata not solve problem

FYI: Got a similar running error as Miramir lately; yet for me it was a trailing ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'pulsectl'.

So eventually I got volctl working again after updating/reinstalling "python-pulsectl" as well.

Install with yay.

not work

I assume your setup is somehow borked? Maybe installed for another Python version? Installed in an virtual environment?

[Edit] Sorry, i had Testing repo enabled by mistake, updated all dependencies for python 3.10, it works fine.

Doesn't work with the latest python updates in Arch.

When trying to rebuild it shows this error:

Please add python-pulsectl as dependency for volctl 0.9.0-1

That slipped through. Added, thanks!

This package requires python-cairo but that isn't listed as a dependency

Added. Thanks

The module gi comes with python-gobject. Hard to say what is wrong up with your setup.

Make sure there is a directory /usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/gi and try to reinstall python-gobject?

I'm getting the error DistributionNotFound: The 'volctl==0.6.2' distribution was not found and is required by the application. Any idea as for why?

Smells like you recently upgraded to Python 3.8 and volctl is still installed for 3.7? Try reinstalling volctl.

This package requires python-setuptools to be installed but does not declare this dependency.

buzz commented on 2016-05-03 16:14 (UTC)

Thanks for the feedback! I wasn't aware of this.

Few comments about the PKGBUILD. * Per guideline empty vars should be removed. * The install file isn't needed anymore. Since pacman5 and its hook support made it obsolete. desktop-file-utils includes now a hook, which does the update, whenever a package installs a file there.
