Hi folks .

I am still getting plagued by these Python warnings

Can I ask also if:

* you do partial updates or full (pacman -Suv) * you have packages installed from additional repos/sources (e.g. AUR) * you have added global python packages with pip install

1 No i never do partial installs 2 yes like most arch users i use a few AUR packages this happened after a failed " pacman -Syu " it did not indicate it failed bit the next day the syatem was trash i got it running again there are just all these python things and i am talking around 150 of them not just the example 3 Nope never used PIP . pete

Then may be worth trying: pacman -Qk 2>&1 | tee /tmp/pac.log or if needed then: pacman -Qkk gene

it seems every time there is something Python related i get around 150 lines of these warnings any help anyone before i loose it and rebuild the system that is a nightmare thought

After you finished the update, those files were put into place so you no longer have an issue with that package. You either need to cancel the update, or use pacman -Qkk on all of your python packages to identify which ones are missing files. Are you using pip at all? Any cleaners like bleachbit?

There's no need to rebuild the system because of a few warnings.

Hi Run "pacman -Qkk " all python3.11 stuff nothing else i wish i could just completely bin all the python stuff and start again but i did not uses pip i do not use any cleaners It is getting annoying every time i run a pacman update if there is any python in the update im just get pages of these warnings not the only thing i have that refuses to work so far is the Tor Browser launcher which gives me this "Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/torbrowser-launcher", line 29, in <module> import torbrowser_launcher File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/torbrowser_launcher/__init__.py", line 36, in <module> from .common import Common, SHARE File "/usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/torbrowser_launcher/common.py", line 37, in <module> import gpg ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'gpg' " i have run Linux for almost as long as it has existed and this is one that is driving me nuts nuts i tell you .

Alright, so what does `pacman -Qkk python-gpgme` give you?

i have attached the generated list from " "pacman -Qkk python-gpgme 2>&1 | tee /tmp/war.log" Pete

So virtually every file in that package is missing. Not altered, 0 length, or anything, just flat out missing. This isn't a typical filesystem issue/power loss or anything like that, then. Since pip hasn't been used and it appears to be limited to python, this sounds more like a bad backup restore? Could also be a manual deletion for some reason?

To fix it, since multiple packages are involved, you can get a list of all python packages with `pacman -Qqo /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/`, reinstall all of those.

It wouldn't hurt to check just `pacman -Qkk` to make sure there aren't other packages involved.

the problem is if you manually go into the directorys the files are there and are not zero length i checked that Pete

And yet both pacman and python say they are not there. What does `ls -lR /usr/lib/python3.11/site-packages/gpg/` show?

HUmmm this is getting silly now says the gpg directory is missing now i know why i do not like python so what package is the gpg setup . sorry this is getting a bit annoying now Pete

I know that pete said that the question marks in the original post are artifacts, but I'm still hung up on the fact that in that original post, the filenames appear to be relative rather than absolute, as if some environment variable is unset, or perhaps mistakenly set to an empty string instead of being unset.

I admit that I haven't read every post in excruciating detail, but if something in pete's system is looking in usr/lib, but all the people helping are looking in /usr/lib, that might explain some of the apparently contradictory results.

Can pete please verify that the warnings name files in /usr/lib/... (an absolute path) and not usr/lib/... (a relative path)? Or perhaps capture the output from commands that generate the warnnings in a file and post/attach that instead of (presubably) copying and pasing from a terminal program (which is evidently not a lossless copy)?

yes they are absolute path Pete

According to https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/any/python-pyrate-limiter/ the current version should be 3.1.1 rather than 3.1.0 so it seems your system is not up to date? Or maybe you do have the latest version but some part of your system thinks you still have the previous version?

It would seem i have the correct version installed

" pacman -S python-pyrate-limiter warning: python-pyrate-limiter-3.1.1-1 is up to date -- reinstalling resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages...

Packages (1) python-pyrate-limiter-3.1.1-1 "

see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Pacman/Tips_and_tricks#Identify_files_not_o... it seems you have some left-over/broken files from when you said your system has crashed (or what not). -- damjan
