Arch Linux User Repository

What does that mean: "This should probably be reported upstream." How can I do this?

I think the working of autokey depends not only on kernel 4.12 or 4.13 but also on the graphic utilities. My desktop computer is with intel: Autokey is okay with 4.13. My notebook is with nvidia; autokey does not work with 4.13.

a-bostaurus: This should probably be reported upstream. I've tried it on Arch Linux testing now (Linux 4.13.3, XFCE) and, although I've ran into some other problems (pasting using Mouse Selection just hangs; no non-latin input using Keyboard method; phrase list doesn't refresh automatically after modifying it using scripts, had to restart the app to refresh), I guess I didn't encounter yours. I've found the only issue that might be remotely related to yours: https://github.com/autokey-py3/autokey/issues/95 There may be something in the debug logs too.

autokey does not work after the last update of Manjaro stable Kernel 4.13) with Mate and XFCE. The abbreviations are not changed into the extended epressions. I cannot see any reason for this behaviour. I tried kernel 4.12, too. With this it works.

Fixed, thanks!

I get this error: Autokey needs setuptools in order to build. Install it with your packagemanager (python-setuptools) or via pip (pip install setuptools) adding python-setuptools to dependencies solve the issue

The recent problems were introduced by this commit: https://github.com/autokey-py3/autokey/commit/2250d90d31aec0fac029ea2f9c2f1c71cfd09daf and in fact they consist of two parts: 1. 'python3-xlib' in Ubuntu is 'python-xlib' in Arch, this patches easily. 2. 'dbus-python' is somehow not found in Arch, even if python-dbus and python-dbus-common are installed. Other aliases, like 'dbus', 'python-dbus' etc. don't work too. I just patched this dep out of setup.py, especially since we still control dependencies by our distribution tools. But I still wonder what's wrong with python-dbus, some people had the same problem with blockify (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/blockify/?comments=all), but that was resolved when this dep was removed from upstream. pip install would work, of course, but using that we're mixing Arch and python's package managers, and get all kinds of problems on further updates/removes. It would be wiser to just install autokey via pip if we're going this way.

I was able to fix this problem by installing python3-xlib using pip: sudo pip install python3-xlib

@dark-saber: version 0.93.9-1 builds successfully but fails at runtime with an exception on python3-xlib (0.93.7-1 worked fine). Sadly, your suggestion below to @snuffop didn't work for me; here is what I tried and I still get the same exception: sudo pacman -R python-xlib autokey-py3 && sudo pacman -S python-xlib && yaourt -S autokey-py3 -------- Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/autokey-gtk", line 6, in <module> from pkg_resources import load_entry_point File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3019, in <module> @_call_aside File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3003, in _call_aside f(*args, **kwargs) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 3032, in _initialize_master_working_set working_set = WorkingSet._build_master() File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 655, in _build_master ws.require(__requires__) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 963, in require needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements)) File "/usr/lib/python3.6/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 849, in resolve raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers) pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'python3-xlib' distribution was not found and is required by autokey -------- ... even though python-xlib is installed: ~ sudo pacman -Syu python-xlib :: Synchronizing package databases... core is up to date extra is up to date community is up to date multilib is up to date warning: python-xlib-0.18-2 is up to date -- reinstalling :: Starting full system upgrade... resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages...

I've re installed all pkgs built against 3.5 as well as xlib and autokey-py3 same error and trace.  pacman -Qo /usr/lib/python3.5 error: No package owns /usr/lib/python3.5
