[arch-general] Python nightmare
Hi guys,
Recently tried to install Spyder IDE but i got a ton of errors, so after
trying different approaches I found that probably doing it through
Anaconda would be better. And try first with AUR, but never could, so I
download Anacondas installer and after a huge amount of time it got
installed. So there it was Anaconda + Spyder etc however I started
to get a ton of Python related warnings and error every time I updated
(pacman -Syu), so i ended up removing Anconda and everything else. But
now i still getting errors like...
advertencia: no se pudo obtener información del archivo
usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/btrfsutil.cpython-310-x86_64-linux-gnu.so
advertencia: no se pudo obtener información del archivo

advertencia: no se pudo obtener información del archivo
usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/jaraco.text-3.8.1.dist-info/
for instance this packages are indeed installed, but I keep gettin the
warning, and like that I get for a ton of files
ls -l /usr/lib/python3.10/site-packages/jaraco.text-3.9.0.dist-info/

And even worse, whenever i tried to run certain apps (like gnome-tweaks,
bpython, ipyhton) now i get errors when they work before without a
problem.. this is the outrput.
$ gnome-tweaks
Traceback (most recent call last):

Checking out my python binaries i get..

So, does anybody has seen or been in something like this? any hints how
can I "purge" "remove" or deinstall properly the buggy libraries and
reinstall everything properly?
Hope someone have a good pointer. Thanks in advance.

Hope someone have a good pointer. Thanks in advance. Well, it looks like your python installation is messed up. Hence my question about installing from source. Could you try to use these (broken) applications as another user? With a bit of luck, it's only the personal environment that got broken. Yep, I tried it wiht a brand new user with the same result :( If it doesn't work with another user, then you might have corrupted the files. Perhaps that can be fixed by reinstalling the packages (from a known good source), otherwise it's probably time to reinstall Arch completely and restore the user data from backup. This is what i was trying to avoid, but every day i see it more near as a solution. Of course, this being Linux, you could also opt to check each file under /usr with pacman. (Can this be done the other way around? By letting pacman test the integrity of each installed pkg?). There's nothing wrong with a little manual work, I'm just guessing that starting from scratch might be faster, depending on the damage. yes, I agree. Thanks Guus for your comments.

Hello, I believe the problem might be openvpn is running as an unprivileged user with capabilities now instead of relying on openvpn itself dropping privileges. You'd have to revert those changes to allow pam access to the password files. https://github.com/archlinux/svntogit-packages/commit/3da0f77eeae1e7bd5e877fe183ca67fc20101ad3 -- Andy
