mmkodali: Are you in a virtual environment? I'm confused by your build directory specifying python 3.13.1 while upstream system python is 3.13.5. I have built this package successfully in a clean chroot without being able to replicate the issue

Please run the following:

$ which python $ python --version 

unable to install the updated version 1.6.1-1

build giving the following output with failure :

I had to manually pip install installer to get this update to install. Shouldn't it be a dep?

@nilsw While I do agree with you that the tests are a bit annoying, they do tests the actual function of the package, and there are no other tests upstream. As such I'd prefer to keep them.

@mielouk My guess would be that all dependent packages in the official repositories were moved to the AUR or dropped this as a dependency. If you don't have any packages that depend on this, or aren't using it yourself, I don't see how it would be unsafe to remove it.

Why has this package been moved to the AUR and is it safe/reasonable to remove it?

Can you remove or change the check() function? I basically just dumps a bunch of progress bars to stdout, which is not a really helpful test when used in an installer...
