Arch Linux User Repository

This should explicitly depend on python-fonttools>=4.17.1, not yet in [community] but provided by python-fonttools-git.

P.S.‌ I've tried applying to be a TU so we can avoid bottlenecks like this when font related packages are delayed in [community] due to lack of attention, but haven't found 2 sponsors yet. If you know any of them that might be interested let me know.

The check() function on this is borked, but I think it might be an upstream problem. Something in the build_ext phase is actually trying to install or use and old version of python-fonttools and failing on the current version. With all the related dependencies fully up to date I can build this with --nocheck but not without.

@thrasibule I appreciate you bumping packages quickly when they are flagged, but I've been posting you patches with fixes that go beyond the package bump. In this case my patch builds, the package as posted can't even be validated by makepkg. I've been fixing things per Arch guidelines such splitting build() and package() stages and using their recommended stable URL scheme. Can you please apply these patches?

Cannot build the package.

Integrity checks (sha256) differ in size from the source array.

The second sha256 shouldn't be there.

Similar to the patch I just sent for python-skia-pathops, this uses a more stable download URL, splits the build() and package() phases and makes a few other touchups inline with the general and python specific Arch package guidelines. Please consider applying the following using git am:

Broken build in my case. Look at http://dpaste.com/19SQR3Q Some info about packages http://dpaste.com/3DSD493
