Hello,
try to install Waydroid but there is a dependency error with python modul: gbinder

sudo pacman -Syu
sudo pacman -S waydroid-image
sudo waydroid init -f

[root@manjaro-arm ~]# waydroid init -f
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/waydroid", line 6, in <module>

    from tools.interfaces import IPlatform
  File "/usr/lib/waydroid/tools/interfaces/IPlatform.py", line 1, in <module>
    import gbinder

@philm

what can I do ?

I guess Python was updated to 3.10 recently, so this probably means that you installed waydroid recently (so it’s using python 3.10) but you python-gbinder was not updated and is still using 3.9.
Just do a full system upgrade with sudo pacman -Suy.

If it still does not work after the update and a restart (unlikely), then it could be a problem with waydroid packaging for manjaro.

AFAIK Waydroid works only on a Wayland session

I´m having this issue too. I tried sudo pacman -Suy but no luck.
My issue is when I try to install waydroid. Any help?
