Due to lib2to3 unable to install a python pkg

heartfoundation · 2025-01-01 01:22:12

Since the Python update to 3.13, I cannot install a QGIS dependency 'python-future' because I'm failing to install 'python-future' dependency 'lib2to3. I read 'lib2to3' is deprecated, and 'python-fissix' is a fork of it(?). Installed 'python-fissix' via git clone successfully. Python-fissix resides in /usr/lib/python3.13/site-packages as pacman -Q also states. Used git clone to obtain 'python-future', but within the 'python-future' directory makepkg yields __ ERROR collecting tests/test_past/test_translation.py _______________________________
ImportError while importing test module '/home/sheep/python-future/src/future-1.0.0/tests/test_past/test_translation.py'.

Am I placing files in wrong directory, or is python pip the alternative route?

I have the exact same issue.

Please use [code][/code] tags, not "quote" tags. Edit your post in this regard.

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/pyth … nt-1003141 - python-future is dead.

I cannot install a QGIS dependency 'python-future' because

Mind to elaborate?
https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/qgis/
What qgis depends on python-future/lib2to3 ?

I got the same when upgrading:

Mod note: moving to AUR Issues

seth · 2025-01-03 09:28:20

Instead of further metoo posts, I'd take a look why python-future is installed itfp.
Try to remove the package, see what blocks it (or whether it was stale) and take that to that client. There's a good chance that a bunch of AUR packages hold it as stale dependency while upstream has already lost it and it's not actually required anymore.
If you indeed ue anything that's basically still python2 and also bitrot, maybe it's time to look for a replacement solution.

SRG · 2025-01-03 10:26:09

python-future is mandatory for the AUR "seafile" package. So in my case, it of course canno't be removed at this time. Until now, everything was working / no issues with python-future v1.0.0-2. Problems only appeared with v1.0.0-4.

seth · 2025-01-03 10:31:06

I was gonna tell you to get glasses, but the stale dependency was removed just 14h ago

SRG · 2025-01-03 12:52:04

Indeed ... now it can be removed ... but of course i tried yesterday, and it was failing at that time, due to the still-there-at-that-time seafile dependency.
So problem solved on my side now.
