@43615 you need to add the key to your local keyring

@patlefort: strange - makepkg or devtools don't download the Gentoo patches if they are already in the workspace. What AUR builder do you use (if any)?

Can you remove the url from the gentoo patches from the source array? It fails to download and it's included in this repo.

Actually, I added the patches locally and fixed a test, see https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/log/?h=python2 somehow the AUR currently doesn't show the correct current PKGBUILD?

Here is a link to a modified PKGBUILD which should compile successfully (it includes the url to the patches which @cedric-air posted); I've tested it:

https://paste.xinu.at/dEKoXj/

The patches download properly. The PKGBUILD will take care of that.

If you want the patches to create your own PKGBUILD, you can do:

curl -L "https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/pub/proj/python/patchsets/2.7/python-gentoo-patches-2.7.18_p16.tar.xz" -o python-gentoo-patches-2.7.18_p16.tar.xz

Gentoo patches fails to download. pokes

cedric-air commented on 2026-05-07 07:20 (UTC)

It seems the gentoo patches can be downloaded here: https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/www.ibiblio.org/gentoo/pub/proj/python/patchsets/2.7/

gschwarz commented on 2026-04-26 10:40 (UTC)

Building fails because the python Gentoo patches cannot be downloaded.

@nroth no issues here. "Python 2 on Arch" already ended and this package is only on life support with each day less and less packages requiring it.
