[Solved] Problem with pyxdg in 32-bit
Posted: 12 May 2023 10:24
There seems to be a small problem with the package pyxdg in Slackel 32-bit. Specifically, the system seems to try to downgrade it from version 0.27 to version 0.25 (and it can't, because of unmet dependency named just "python", which is nowhere to be found). In Slackel 64-bit there is no such a problem, and that's because there is no version 0.25 there (there is, however py3xdg-0.25, which does not trigger a downgrade).
The problem is very fresh, I did system upgrades in both 32- and 64-bit Slackel installations very recently (3 days ago), and didn't have that problem. I also had a look in Slackware-Current change logs and pyxdg is not mentioned there for quite a long time.
Unless I'm terribly mistaken, that pyxdg-0.25 package found in 32-bit repositories is a relic that probably should be removed?
