Arch Linux User Repository

Looks like a regression in setuptools-rust 0.12, and it's been fixed, but the fix hasn't been released yet (as of 0.12.1).

For the moment, I'm not sure if there's anything that can be done other than downgrading to setuptools-rust 0.11 (see https://archive.archlinux.org/packages/p/python-setuptools-rust/ if you don't still have the old version cached).

Latest version fails to build:

fyi my issue was resolved when the patool package updated the egg-info directory as you suggested in your comment on that page. Thank you for your help.

Getting an error when I tried to run omwmerge:

I decided to check the patool folder permissions and I noticed the were 640. Is that correct? I noticed someone mentioned that in the comments for patool in the AUR, but I didn't see a response:
