Using an AUR helper such as yay to build packages including backintime is HIGHLY discouraged. The recommended build method is to use a clean chroot. See: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

I wrote a script that automates much of that called clean-chroot-manager offered here in the AUR.

Please stop posting build failures because you insist on building with yay or other AUR helpers.

After an system upgrade today "yay -Syu" backintime is not starting any more due to missing python module: "ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'dbus'"

Beware for version 1.2.0, it has many issues: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/issues/988

I see at githab page that Backintime might be compiled with Qt5 GUI.
Is it possible to update this package to use it or there are some problems?

@pipep - No, all members of the base-devel group are assumed dependencies and shall not be listed out explicitly: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Arch_User_Repository#Prerequisites

Compiling backintime I get the error "make: msgfmt: Command not found". I solved installing gettext. Should gettext be added as dependency?

@artafinde - Yes, the current version of pyqt4 will not work without it. https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=backintime&id=2eb754ea07a0

Is python-sip-pyqt4 now a dependency?

@derkardinal @finswimmer - thanks for pointing me in the right direction. I added the dep of python-pyqt4 based on @inemum's PKGBUILD (which I uploaded to the AUR). I am able to run 1.1.24 now with the current version of pyqt4.
