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.

What else is needed to connect to gnome-keyring? When changing the settings I always get the error: "Can't connect to gnomekeyring to save password" I have installed python2-keyring and python2-gnomekeyring.

@k0Do I don't have the inclination to host their source downloads for them if they can't even be bothered releasing proper tarballs. Would you like to adopt the package?

k0Do commented on 2013-04-08 16:50 (UTC)

Proposal: Download the tarball once from Launchpad, host it on a custom space. Then you can go with the same checksum till a new release is available.

@fukawi2 Do you read the official changelog? IMHO 1.0.22 is the official release. http://backintime.le-web.org/change-log/ http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~bit-team/backintime/trunk/view/head:/VERSION

Im not sure how to use "SKIP" so after checksum failed I went into the tmp directory and got the "md5sum" of the file then I edited the pkgbuild with that value. After the install it was not executing, terminal gave me error- "ImportError: No module named keyring" I install "mercurial_keyring" from AUR and now it works. Not sure if this needs to be a dependecy. After reading http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5173197/python-import-seems-to-behave-differently-in-mercurial-keyring-py-file "Most likely, hg is running using the system python (2.6) rather than the copy of 2.7 you have installed. Try installing mercurial_keyring and keyring under 2.6, and see if that gets things working as expected."

@test0 See my earlier comment about Launchpad returning different tarballs each download when downloading from the BZR tree tag. I'm tempted to roll this back to 1.0.8 since the new Launchpad development doesn't seem to have formally made any releases. There's tags in the BZR tree, but no downloads available.

security check fails.

So, what is the solution to cope with the python2 - python3 conflict? [orschiro@thinkpad ~]$ backintime File "/usr/share/backintime/common/backintime.py", line 73 print '' ^ SyntaxError: invalid syntax

The sed invocation in the PKGBUILD needs to be changed to something like: sed -e 's|^\(ssh-agent \)\?python |\1python2 |g' -i $pkgdir/usr/bin/* Since 1.0.22, /usr/bin/backintime and /usr/bin/backintime-gnome invoke python through ssh-agent to work around this bug: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openssh/+bug/841672
