Trying to make a package

I try to create a package from hug. After a lot of errors, I write this PKGBUILD:

$ cat PKGBUILD 
_name="hug"
pkgname=('python-hug')
pkgver='2.4.8'
pkgrel=2
pkgdesc="Embrace the APIs of the future"
url="https://github.com/hugapi/hug"
depends=('python' 'falkon')
makedepends=('python-setuptools')
license=('MIT')
arch=('any')
source=("https://github.com/hugapi/hug/archive/${pkgver}.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('06cd6293fa71e1d101fbb89b8e6816a7c77025801231117f8f73409592db278e')

build() {
	    cd "$srcdir/${_name}-${pkgver}"
	    python setup.py build
	}

package() {
	    depends+=()
	    cd "$srcdir/${_name}-${pkgver}"
		python setup.py install --root="$pkgdir" --optimize=1
	    }

but it seems hug depends on falkon 1 because after running hug application I get:

 _build_master
    ws.require(__requires__)
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 900, in require
    needed = self.resolve(parse_requirements(requirements))
  File "/usr/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pkg_resources/__init__.py", line 786, in resolve
    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'falcon==1.4.1' distribution was not found and is required by hug

Anyone could help me to write PKGBUILD definitively? Is this true that it depends on falkon=1.4.1. In github, it says it depends on 2.0.0.

Thanks in advance,

Re: Trying to make a package

The requirements from master is 2.0.0 but the PKGBUILD is using 2.4.8 release so https://github.com/hugapi/hug/blob/2.4. … common.txt

Re: Trying to make a package

The current version depends on 2.0.0 whereas the old version which you are building does indeed depend on 1.4.1......
https://github.com/hugapi/hug/blob/2.4. … common.txt

Do you have a reason for trying to build an old version of hug instead of the latest?

Thanks a lot. I just put this version because it appears in the web page (right top corner). Modifying the PKGBUILD with latest version (which depends on falkon 2.0.0,) ) I get:

 hug -f 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/hug", line 6, in <module>

    raise DistributionNotFound(req, requirers)
pkg_resources.DistributionNotFound: The 'falcon==2.0.0' distribution was not found and is required by hug

My PKGBUILD is

 cat PKGBUILD 
_name="hug"
pkgname=('python-hug')
pkgver='2.6.0'
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Embrace the APIs of the future"
url="https://github.com/hugapi/hug"
depends=('python' 'falkon')
makedepends=('python-setuptools')
license=('MIT')
arch=('any')
source=("https://github.com/hugapi/hug/archive/${pkgver}.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('c54b04ed5ce0e436ddf9e8e00f838b4ed740a914cf3af9bef055e11375fc1ebe')

build() {
	    cd "$srcdir/${_name}-${pkgver}"
	    python setup.py build
	}

package() {
	    depends+=()
	    cd "$srcdir/${_name}-${pkgver}"
		python setup.py install --root="$pkgdir" --optimize=1
	    }

Is there any way to  patch `common`file and specify that falkon should be >= 2.0,0 and not == 2.0.0?

Thanks,

Re: Trying to make a package

The package you are trying to build depends on falcon which is a python web framework.  But you listed in the dependencies, falkon, which is a web browser.  The current release of falcon is 2.0.0.

Re: Trying to make a package

Most likely it will have "falcon" in its name. It may be called python-falcon since it is a framework for python.  If it isn't available in the official repositories, then you can look in the AUR. If you cannot find it, then you'll have to create your own package for that as well.

Thanks a lot,
So the PKGBUILD will be:

_name="hug"
pkgname=('python-hug')
pkgver='2.6.0'
pkgrel=2
pkgdesc="Embrace the APIs of the future"
url="https://github.com/hugapi/hug"
depends=('python' 'python-falcon')
makedepends=('python-setuptools')
license=('MIT')
arch=('any')
source=("https://github.com/hugapi/hug/archive/${pkgver}.tar.gz")
sha256sums=('c54b04ed5ce0e436ddf9e8e00f838b4ed740a914cf3af9bef055e11375fc1ebe')

build() {
	    cd "$srcdir/${_name}-${pkgver}"
	    python setup.py build
	}

package() {
	    depends+=()
	    cd "$srcdir/${_name}-${pkgver}"
		python setup.py install --root="$pkgdir" --optimize=1
	    }

Re: Trying to make a package

After all of your comments, I submit the PKGBUILD to AUR but it seems it does not have git repo. How can I solve that?

Please don't stop reading after seeing "404 - Page not found". There is more information on that error page.
