AUR: Tauon won't start, manual intervention required

[Taiko2k]

With the release of Python 3.11, 3.12 etc, you need to rebuild AUR python dependencies.

For Tauon, run:

# Replace trizen with your AUR helper of choice, or build the packages manually

# Clear cache to not accidentally use an old build
trizen -Scc

# Rebuild the package(s)
trizen -S python-pysdl2 # python-isounidecode - isounidecode is no longer used by current Tauon

Thank you, I was just about to create an issue for this!

Even after manually installing these packages, tauon still thinks isounidecode isn't installed

@kamu106

What does the command pacman -Ql python-isounidecode output for you?

@kamu106 Yep looks like its not installed for 3.11. you need to rebuild and reinstall the isounidecode package. If you already tried that you probably need to wipe your AUR helpers cache or build it manually. To build manually:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/python-isounidecode.git
cd python-isounidecode
makepkg -si

[kamu106]

cd python-isounidecode

Thanks that fixed it, thanks for all your hard work

Hey, I installed the missing dependencies and reinstalled Tauon, but at home the problem persists.

[C0rn3j]

I installed the missing dependencies

You need to rebuild and reinstall your current packages instead (in this case pysdl2).

The 3.11 dependency (isounidecode) is no longer used in current Tauon.

[TheFlomax]

You need to rebuild and reinstall your current packages instead (in this case pysdl2).

And how can I do that with paru or pacman?
Sorry, I'm not used to this kind of manipulation.

[C0rn3j]

As per the example in the OP - #985 (comment) - minus the isounidecode package.

Okay so I have try with paru -S tauon-music-box python-pysdl2 but I have get the same error.
So I have so an paru -Rns tauon-music-box python-pysdl2 and I retry paru -S tauon-music-box python-pysdl2.

But I have the same error.

pacman -Qoq /usr/lib/python3.12/site-packages/ -> this should return an error, if it returns any packages, they're broken, remove them and reinstall them if you need them.

ls -lah /usr/lib/python3.12 - This should return an error - if the first command now returns an error, but this one doesn't, look what's in there, figure out how it got there, then delete it and don't make that mistake again.

echo ~/.local/lib/python* This should return an error - if not - delete the result after figuring out how it got there.

If you're STILL getting issues, show pacman -Qi python-pysdl2 and

python
>>> import sdl2

I have get no error but import sdl2 are fail.

Your package is compiled in November, you're reinstalling an old version over and over.

paru -Scc to clear the cache.

I've edited this into the OP now.

Ahhh, yes i right now Tauon is work !
