I have confirmed that on a fresh system you need to install python-pip before installing the AUR package mythtv-git if you want the services scripts like find_orphans.py to work.
The python bindings are missing if you don't do this.
I suggest python-pip be added to the list of required dependencies.
The warning on my yay install log about missing items sent me to check my script for mythtv dependencies verses what mythtv-git AUR uses.
I have "python-pip" as the first one in my script and I don't see that at all in PKGPUILD The package python-pip brings in python-wheel
@boomshalek, Use at your own risk because I don't understand the wider effects of this work around. Here's my one line changed:
PIP_OPTIONS = --no-build-isolation --break-system-packages --no-cache-dir --no-index --disable-pip-version-check --no-deps
@jfabernathy Oh, i miss that script a lot! Can you please share a patch how to use the --break-system-packages pip option in the build/mythtv/mythtv/bindings/Makefile ? TIA
I created a new VM and installed mythtv-git via yay. Once backend and database was running correctly, I tried to run find_orphans.py and got the errors listed earlier. I've attached the yay console log. I see in there about disabling of python bindings due to missing items. In the section at the start of mythtv build I see:
==> Starting build()...
WARNING: disabling Python bindings; missing pip, wheel
The complete log is on my google drive at.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ohU5pFPxo7h97L_HKx-i4p8394JMJuqz/view?usp=sharing
The error I see only when using the output of AUR install is:
[jim@den-pc ~]$ python3 find_orphans.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/jim/find_orphans.py", line 3, in <module>
from MythTV import MythDB, MythBE, Recorded, MythError
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'MythTV'
Since my system on real hardware got fixed by building from source, I'll have to build a VM to do any verifing again or capture any console log when doing yay -S
mythtv-git.
One difference I do on installation is I create the Mythtv user using a specific gid and uid and /home/mythtv directory along with shell = bash
@jfabernathy What exact error are you seeing? As far as I can tell, the python bindings are building OK on my system (python 3.12.4) but i'm seeing some warnings when it comes to install the package as a whole, about the python bindings containing a reference to the sourcedir, which I don't remember seeing before:

etc.
However I ran the find_orphans.py script myself, and it appeared to work. Even with the above build warnings, the python bindings appared to be installed fine
I have found an issue with not being about to run mythtv services python scripts like find_orphans.py (https://www.mythtv.org/wiki/Find_orphans.py) if the mythtv system is built using this AUR. The mythtv developers say that is has something to do with the python bindings not being right.
I can build mythtv from source and the scripts like find_orphans.py work. Of course, you have to override the PEP 668 rules by using the --break-system-packages pip option in the build/mythtv/mythtv/bindings/Makefile. Mythtv seems to work in all respects except the scripts needing the python bindings setup.
@jfabernathy As I wrote below. I have uninstalled it and get the quoted error message in the green text box. The pastebin is when i have installed it.

This package replaces the previous 'mythtv' AUR package. It has been renamed to comply with Arch's VCS package guidelines.
I hope to update the various mythplugins AUR packages soon
