Arch Linux User Repository

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.

@graysky: Is it possible that backintime with KDE requires kdebindings-python2 instead of kdebindings-python? Because as far as I know, backintime uses python2, and I needed to install kdebindings-python2 in order to avoid this error on startup: $ backintime-kde4 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/share/backintime/kde4/app.py", line 44, in <module> from PyKDE4.kdecore import * ImportError: No module named kdecore Thanks a lot for checking :-)

Bump to v1.0.26-4 Changelog: Added a versioned requirement to python2-keyring to keep users from updating to 3.0.5 which FUBR's backintime. A bug report is active upstream concerning this issue.[1] Commit: http://pkgbuild.com/git/aur-mirror.git/commit/backintime?id=0f8175e5181ead95137030a7d26fe00c5ec6062d 1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/backintime/+bug/1234024

Yes, the update of python2-keyring from 1.6.1-1 -> 3.0.5-1 has fubr'ed backintime. I can repeat this on my gtk setup after updated that package. There is an open bug report against this upstream.[1] 1. https://bugs.launchpad.net/backintime/+bug/1234024 % backintime-gnome Back In Time Version: 1.0.26 Back In Time comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY.

@orschiro Thanks, but it did not work! Gnome Keyring is started: ###> ps ax | grep gnome 660 ? Sl 0:00 /usr/bin/gnome-keyring-daemon --start --components=pkcs11 1351 pts/1 S+ 0:00 grep gnome

@ArchGiac Could it be that also on KDE you need the Gnome Keyring? Does that help? http://www.jfdesignnet.com/?p=2731

Thanks for fixing the issue :-) Works fine for me too (kde4).
