Hello!

I tried updating all the AUR-packages, but got this error with a not that verbose description, so I dont know what to do about that… Help appreciated

I built it as a test and it worked for me

for the time being python2-ply needs to be rebuilt and installed
after that python2-pycparser can be rebuilt

Why do you even need python2-“anything”…

4

It says it is needed for IDLE, even though I’m using python 3.x…

5

Where does it say that? Definitely not when I query aur/idle.

6

Here it says so…

~ >>> pamac remove python2

Perhaps write an exact package name then. Anyway, another out-of-date package. But ok, that’s all there is in AUR, so I guess you’re stuck with deprecated python2.

8

also re your other thread.

AUR “packages”

assess what you need them for

remove - for the time being
(to run the pacman update of the base system)
update system without them
then reinstall what you still need

rolling release
dependencies may change over time and AUR is not tracked

9

That package was flagged out of date over a year ago (2021-04-22), and in my opinion you don’t even need it, what it does “This package is just for installing desktop and icon assets for use on Arch Linux.” you can do yourself, it’s easy to make to your own desktop entry for idle.

I want to install my printers driver from AUR. It is “cndrvcups-lb-bin”. But it says" python2 building…". It takes about 15 mins for it. But at the end of it, it doesn’t install and work. “cndrvcups-lb-bin” worked before without any problem. But it is a problem now. I m using latest Manjaro.

11

I still get “python 2 compile failed” error. What can i do?

12

Maybe try a more recent version of the driver - cnrdrvcups-lb 5.60, it might not need python2.

13

Still not working

14

Installed cnrdrvcups-lb 5.60 I can set printer in printer settings but it doesnt print a paper :frowning:

15

How can i paste “rastertoufr2” file into root->usr->lib->cups->filter? How can i get root permissions for pasting?
