@peter.kehl: Your Python path seems to be in your home directory. Please refer to the Manjaro forum for support.

The current package is failing to build. My Manjaro is up-to-date but old (over 3+years) - I know that it "shouldn't matter", but I did see (GUI) differences between my Manjaro and a newer installation. Anyway, the error:

@juga: It's fixed now.

juga commented on 2022-10-02 16:36 (UTC)

fragment refers to the directory / src which does not exist. Building a package ends with an error that there is no such directory. Rather than package() { cd "$srcdir/${pkgname%-git}/src i used package() { cd "$srcdir/${pkgname%-git}/brightness-controller-linux/brightness_controller_linux" The package is building but after installing and running I get an error about the missing module py brightness_controller. After installing the module, the program works. Could be a little easier to install, but it works, thanks.

Ok, thanks. I've orphaned it.

Really interesting this @yochananmarqos's PKGBUILD.

I temporaraly solved this installation using a custom script that I've created to it, here is the link to it:

@dracorp I am an upstream contributor. This PKGBUILD does not work, while the one created by @yochananmarqos works perfectly. Please add him as a Co-Maintainer (or orphan the package so that he can adopt it).

yochananmarqos commented on 2021-05-14 15:28 (UTC)

@archisman: Thanks for the tips, I got it working. See my PKGBUILD

archisman commented on 2021-05-14 03:47 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-14 04:28 (UTC) by archisman)

The setup.py is not ready yet. Till then, edit the PKGBUILD to do the following.

Download the master branch, and,

1. copy src/init.py --> /usr/share/brightness-controller/
2. copy src/ui/ --> /usr/share/brightness-controller/
3. copy src/util/ --> /usr/share/brightness-controller/
4. copy img/brightness.svg --> /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/brightness-controller.svg
5. Download `brightness-controller` and `brightness-reset`and copy them to `/usr/bin` (from releases branch https://github.com/LordAmit/Brightness/tree/releases/usr/bin)
6. Download the .desktop file from releases (https://github.com/LordAmit/Brightness/tree/releases/usr/share/applications) and copy it to `/usr/share/applications`

Alternatively, download everything from the releases branch, which is used to create the Debian package.

The only dependencies should be python-qtpy(+ one of its optional dependencies, either python-pyqt5 or pyside2) and xorg-xrandr.

yochananmarqos commented on 2021-05-14 02:47 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-14 02:47 (UTC) by yochananmarqos)

This fails to build without patchelf and python-setuptools.

I can't get this to work, so I'm not sure if there are more dependencies needed besides python-qtpy (+ either python-pyqt5 or pyside2) and xorg-xrandr.
