@humanfish451 If you haven't rebuilt xword-dl after updating your system to Python 3.13, you need to do that. See this discussion on the mailing list if there's any confusion about that: https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/aur-general@lists.archlinux.org/thread/WZIPSAMAUEZZQGSH5HSEQDQGH6552WUD/

I'm getting this error when trying to run the program; potentially related to the below comment?

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/python3.13/importlib/metadata/__init__.py", line 407, in from_name
    return next(iter(cls.discover(name=name)))
StopIteration

During handling of the above exception, another exception occurred:

Hi,

Thank you for maintaining this package.

Please kindly remove the unneeded depends=python-importlib-metadata.

That is only required for old Python versions, as it is only a backport of current Python's importlib.metadata, already included in its standard library.

Thank you in advance!
