Heads up: pacman 6.1.0-2 in testing repo and should land in stable soon, and this package depends on pacman<6.1.

Just a quick note to let you know that I looked into this again last week and was able to fix it.

Before trying your suggestions, I tried rebuilding pkgbrowser once again but this time I made sure I cleared my local cache first (yay -Scc). Not sure I had done it before to be honest. All good now, thanks for your help!

(sorry both, can't test any of the suggestions at the moment)

@rafaelff: thanks - literally the first thing I tried, before my first post even!

@kachelaqa: cool, thanks. For the record, I just was saying the justification you provided didn't apply in my case (because I did the exact opposite), not the actual suggested fix. For the sake of clarity, the sequence I went through last week before posting my first comment was 'upgrade pkgbrowser' -> 'full system upgrade' -> 'reinstall pkgbrowser' (after realising it wasn't working)

rafaelff commented on 2023-05-12 19:57 (UTC)

Yeah, first perform a full system upgrade (-Syu) and then rebuild pkgbrowser

kachelaqa commented on 2023-05-12 19:31 (UTC)

@nimbusflow Actually, it does apply, because either way you'll end up with a compiled extension (alpm) that is built for the wrong version of python. That's why you see the exception ImportError: cannot import name 'alpm'.

@rafaelff: thanks, I'll give that a try. I should have been clearer, I only deleted what was relevant to pkgbrowser. No other files were harmed in the debugging of this package!

@kachelaqa: I had to upgrade pkgbrowser before I upgraded python as the 3.10 dependency was stopping me from updating my system, so your suggestion doesn't apply to my case. I'll check /usr/lib/pkgbrowser/ anyway though, thanks.
