"Glances" System Monitor Fails to Display

[adreampuppet]

FYI for the Community repo maintainer, the Glances community package (I’m on Unstable) yields the following error message when invoked:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/glances", line 33, in <module>
    sys.exit(load_entry_point('Glances==3.2.2', 'console_scripts', 'glances')())

The AUR package glances-git displays as expected.

Hi,

There is already a bug report upstream: FS#71587 : [glances] Requires python-defusedxml

[adreampuppet]

Thanks – marking this “solved” and will wait for the fix.

You can fix it yourself😉

sudo pacman -S --asdeps python-defusedxml

@moson

sudo pacman -S --asdeps python-defusedxml

Thanks – works like a charm!
