The most annoying thing on Linux...

[krishna-tiwari]

This problem is just AUR and arch related NOT a overall linux problem. Anki-bin is perfectly working for me same AUR package. Try changing the mirror of pacman and cleaning the pacamn cache and update the system. It should work. If not use flatpak.

[modimihir]

I'm guessing some python library that anki is trying to access got updated and some usage in the library changed. It is trying to import from 'attr'?

you really should launch a mega link to all your wallpaper.... you just have the best collection bruh

[tonynguyen]

Even though Arch is a pain sometimes, I still love it

[rasmusrasmussen]

I share this frustration. I have been plauged with this type of thing before, but this is not a Linux thing per se. It's a problem with the AUR and how some programs gets installed.

[xorlop]

this is why I switched to nix and nixos. once you get it working, you can update and roll back atomically. you don't have to worry about updates, because you can always roll back to working version

[CjqNslXUcM]

bro why do you have attr installed under ~/.local/lib ? if you delete that it'll just fall back to the system python package in /usr/lib. did you randomly install shit from pip without a virtual environment? it's clearly looking in two different places, it's so obvious, you trashed your python with mismatched dependencies. just use a venv or pipx next time you want something from pip

[DeyanKostov]

Automatic testing would catch such errors, right? So... Suse, Ubuntu, Fedora... pick a distro that tests that packages can be built/installed/updated without dependency errors. Of course bugs will appear from time to time, but at least you will not feel like a beta tester.

cant change my goddamn mouse sensitivity on wayland

[Shibuya]

The background image is cool, where did you get that from?

[Valxire]

I absolutely love that wallpaper! Could you provide a download source if willing?

[ataiako]

how do u get ur terminal like that bro

[Jam_Spam]

based on never having used anki and limited knowledge of python, error appears to indicate a broken log file parsed from DownloadLogEntry addon
could be a log format change between the old version and new version?

and dont claim "stuff randomly breaks" after you intentionally uninstalled a working version

[nothiiiiiiiing]

we need more check functions in our PKGBUILDS

[aleksandrpetrosyan]

If you have it in the cache, you can reinstall. Just dig through `yay` cache.

Arch does not = all linux, you brought it on yourself by using arch

[thelanavishnuorchestra]

I never have this problem. Of course, I'm not using a rolling release. Supporting Windows users with MS365 subscriptions has permanently soured me on rolling release anything. I stick with LTS versions. Maybe I don't have the cutting edge versions, but everything always works.

[mjdev-ip]

I have my Ubuntu Desktop for several years now and everything works
If you want to have stable things use LTS releases if you want to tinker around with the latest stuff use Arch .. Your complaint is kinda misguided ... dunno maybe you expected arch to be stable but honestly I think it's not even that big of a deal because you get stuff for free

[Siger]

This is the reason I quit Windows: something just randomly deciding to stop working.

for me what is make me angry as hell are: some mouse settings and cursor are in different places in the settings in different distros, no easy way to make smb server by gui. mx linux trying to make easy but not working at all, rest distro similar. K wallet attacking me while trying connect to my wifi. after cancel request from k wallet and connect, do a restart system and again attack, same shit app attacking again, I do not need at all and refuse to connect and app disconnect me from wifi. I remove k wallet, sign to my wifi and do restart to check if now will be OK but no k wallet service still working in background. finally distro go out from the disk ehh.
