yt-dlp-git AUR package fails to install: test_search_nextjs_data FAILED about yt-dlp HOT 4 CLOSED

Are you trying to install yt-dlp-git from the AUR? Is that why you are running pytest?

This failing test has nothing to do with Python 3.12; it was an oversight on our part. See #9763

You can make this change to the AUR PKGBUILD so that the tests pass:

diff --git a/PKGBUILD b/PKGBUILD
index face841..5cc2eb3 100644
--- a/PKGBUILD

Thanks for the reply @bashonly,

I'm pulling down the AUR from git & running "makepkg" within the directory as I usually do, it's a simple as that. Due to a prior FULL system update that day, python was upgraded, & a number of other AUR app's stopped working as a result. So assumed the usual, which I know I shouldn't do.

I'm not manually running any pytest, unless that's being done via the PKGBUILD file itself (which it is, as I write this); I've made the change as directed within the file, & the compile has worked successfully:

Apologies, my coding skills are very much baseline, however I really do appreciate your response :)

Thanks for all the help!

All good. This will be resolved when #9765 is merged, which will be shortly before the next stable release of yt-dlp. Then this manual intervention in the PKGBUILD will no longer be necessary

Good to know, thanks again!
