@dreieck Thank you for your reports!

I have recently stopped using randrctl. My desktop is now running on a Wayland compositor and does not benefit from this tool. I cannot effectively test this program anymore.

As such, I will no longer update this package and I have resigned as maintainer. This package is free for claiming if you wish to take over maintenance.

Build (version 1.9.0) fails for me with

Exception: Versioning for this project requires either an sdist tarball, or access to an upstream git repository. It's also possible that there is a mismatch between the package name in setup.cfg and the argument given to pbr.version.VersionInfo. Project name randrctl was given, but was not able to be found.

I now switched to randrctl-git.

Thank you for the notifications! I've addressed the following in 1.9.0-2:
- Package now uses python-build and python-installer during the build() and package() steps.
- Missing dependencies are added: python-pbr (make), python-argcomplete
- Upstream source URL changed: http://github.com/edio/randrctl -> https://github.com/koiuo/randrctl

The deprecation warnings are not fully resolved, I suspect this is due to upstream using setup.cfg + setup.py instead of pyproject.toml

Let me know if there are further issues.

Ahoj,

you need to change the build process to move away from setup.py and use python-wheel together with python-build and python-installer. See the Arch Linux wiki on python package guidelines.

python-argcomplete needs to be added as a dependency.

Without it, I‌ get the following error:

    import argcomplete
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'argcomplete'
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package().

It is also needed at runtime.

Thanks for maintaining,
regards!

During update to 1.8.2, the build is failing with:

install: cannot stat 'randrctl/misc/config.ini': No such file or directory

There seems to be multiple problems introduced in the latest PKGBUILD. First of all, there are two package() functions defined, the first one should be build(). Even after this correction, building is still not working with different error:

rm: cannot remove 'bin/randrctl-setup': No such file or directory

Furthermore, inbetween the previous AUR-published version (1.6.0) and the current one (1.8.2), the support for INI config format has been deprecated and only YAML is supported in the current 1.8.2. The PKGBUILD should at least inform the user that configuration needs to be reworked in case of INI format.

Last but not least, currently there is one yet-to-be-accepted pull request in randrctl repo: https://github.com/edio/randrctl/pull/22

As it is update-related and randrctl repo hasn't been updated for some time, I propose it be applied in the PKGBUILD.

Also python-yaml is missing as a dependency:

Package needs Python's packit package and builds successfully after.
