@scenkner This package and any other AUR package which has followed guidelines, installs app in /usr/bin and do not mess with /home .

There is something else wrong in your environment which tries to load spotdl from /home/my_user_name/.local/bin/spotdl.

Maybe you have tried to install it using other way and have not cleaned up after?

I'm getting a similar output as TheTimBrick:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/home/my_user_name/.local/bin/spotdl", line 5, in <module>
from spotdl import console_entry_point
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'spotdl'

I've tried rebuilding both python-spotipy and python-spotdl however the response is the same.
I've installed rebuild-detector and upon running checkrebuild, nothing python or spotdl related are listed.
Note that I am on python 3.13.1-1.

Will get back to the VCR patch soon(TM), but in the meantime, note that given that we're not building with the python-setuptools backend, the python-wheel makedep is unnecessary.

test_matching keeps throwing HTTP 429 errors -- this is known upstream1. I wrote a PR to use mock results from the Spotify API instead to avoid the rate-limiting, I'm still testing it to make sure it works, but hopefully it'll work soon3.

(EDIT: The situation is still problematic even after my PR, and in fact several other tests are failing for me as well. Reported upstream4.)

(EDIT 2024-07-07: I need to drop the PR for the moment -- work is ramping up. So far, I've managed to reduce the failures somewhat, tests need to be run with -k 'not test_config' -m 'not novcr' to skip the known-broken tests)

In diagnosing this, found the dependencies needed to be updated, below is a patch to bring them up to date (omitted are my edits to the PKGBUILD to apply my patches):

@DodoLeDev thanks for the report, I backported the fix into PKGBUILD in commit f0efe44bbdb7

Because of spotDL/spotify-downloader#2119, spotDL is currently unusable as-is, throwing this error:

ImportError: cannot import name 'is_lrc_valid' from 'syncedlyrics.utils' (/usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/syncedlyrics/utils.py)

A PR is waiting for approval in order to fix this issue.

If, like me, you don't want to wait, edit the PKGBUILD as follows:

@HLFH about the out-of-date flag

pkgrel requires bump bc of python 3.12 release

The pkgrel bump in 00f2bfde happened after Python 3.12 was released to the stable repos, so that served as the Python 3.12 rebuild bump. AUR packages aren't required to bump pkgrel on rebuilds however. I'll thus unflag the package.

@dr460nf1r3 Python 3.12 was just released into the stable repos, which means that you need to rebuild all python packages installed from AUR.

Tests seem to be broken however:

@dr460nf1r3 thanks for reporting, it's now fixed in 00f2bfde.
