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.

@Simone - I honestly can't remember why I added the conflicts/provides arrays. Since they're so specific I'd like to think that I had a good reason. I just removed them and bumped to 1.1.12-2. Try your AUR wrapper.

I can confirm what Simone98RC said, Aura doesn't work either.

The required versioning equality between GUI and CLI version makes AUR wrappers like Pamac unable to do automatic updates (because a dependency is requiring the other one updated to same release). Please prevent that by removing the versioning control, thanks much.

@DryEagle I experienced the same issues. It seems AUR helpers( yaourt in my case ) do not install the package properly. I downloaded the tarball and installed it manually just fine.

@aexoxea - Yes, good catch. But there is a problem currently with the test function, see: https://github.com/bit-team/backintime/issues/522

Hi, should "test()" actually be "check()" in the PKGBUILD? Everything otherwise working fine with 1.1.12-1; thanks for maintaining!

@DryEagle - Can't reproduce on my system. How are you building it? If you're not using makepkg, use makepkg.

won't let me update because it has a dependency of backintime-cli 1.1.8 but it wants to overwrite it to install 1.1.12 and can't. had the same issue at 1.1.10 as well. please fix the pkgbuild

Downgrading python-keyring and python2-secretstorage as follows: warning: downgrading package python-keyring (7.0.1-1 => 6.1.1-1) warning: downgrading package python2-secretstorage (2.1.4-1 => 2.1.3-2) makes the Gkr-Message go away.

I'm getting the following error when trying to start backintime (both 1.1.10-1 and 1.1.8-4): Gkr-Message: secret service operation failed: The name org.freedesktop.secrets was not provided by any .service files Does anyone know what could be causing this problem?
