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: I should also have read the older comments, as the python move was already mentioned. Sorry. @fukawi2: Please bump the pkgrel

What is Manjaro? python-notify is no longer in in the repositories, so there is no point having a dependency for it, optional or otherwise.

Manjaro still uses python-notify, so please keep also the other dependency (optdepends maybe).

@Henry78 - Dude... Updated your package and read fukawi2's comment about the flag out-of-date abuse... although in your defense, fukawi2 should have bumped the pkgrel to 5 to avoid confusion.

:: backintime: requires python-notify which was recently replaced by extra/python2-notify

fukawi2 commented on 2012-10-18 00:57 (UTC)

I understand now; my mirror has not got the pacman db with that change. I will update now.

I think the issue xpumax was bringing up is that python-notify has been removed from the official repositories and replaced with python2-notify. The backintime package is current in that 1.0.8 is the latest version, but the dependencies now include a package that is no longer an officially supported Arch package. This is a problem for someone who always updates to the most current packages as the official package list now tells pacman to replace python-notify with python2-notify, but it can't because of the dependency in this package.

@xpumax Please do not flag packages out of date because of PKGBUILD errors; they are errors, not out of date. My testing shows that it works fine with python-notify rather than python2-notify. Can you provide more information what you've found that doesn't work?

graysky commented on 2012-10-17 14:52 (UTC)

...why is this out-of-date? 1.0.8 is current.
