This Solus install is only a few days old and I'm not using the unstable repository, so I'm not sure what's wrong. python-urlgrabber shows up as installed in the Software Center. Can anyone help me?

What's the output of sudo eopkg check python-urlgrabber

Also, have you used pip or done anything with python (outside of install programs from the Solus repository)

Thanks. This is the output:

I did use pip to install a dependency for compiling an app.

pip list | grep urlgrabber

Hmm, seems like installing said dependency upgraded python-urlgrabber, but in the wrong way, I guess?.

Pretty much, seems to be interfering loading the library. This is one of the many benefits that sol will bring in not relying on external packages to function.

To fix you'd likely need to download the package from the archive and install it

wget https://packages.solus-project.com/shannon/p/python-urlgrabber/python-urlgrabber-3.10.1-5-1-x86_64.eopkg
sudo eopkg install python-urlgrabber-3.10.1-5-1-x86_64.eopkg

Thanks! I executed the commands and the package installed just fine, but it still complains :(

I even removed the (faulty) urlgrabber files that pip pulled in and then re-executed your commands, but that also doesn't help :(

For the record, eopkg now says that the integrity of python-urlgrabber is OK, but it still fails to install anything:

Any help? 'Cause I can't even update my system like this...

@Vistaus Can you run python -c 'import urlgrabber' and paste the output?

Sounds like maybe a broken dependency.

Unknown Object (User) added a comment.Dec 19 2017, 12:08 PM

@DataDrake Thanks for the quick reply! This is the output:

Looks like it broke pycurl too. Next one:

wget https://packages.solus-project.com/shannon/p/python-pycurl/python-pycurl-7.19.0-5-1-x86_64.eopkg
sudo eopkg install python-pycurl-7.19.0-5-1-x86_64.eopkg
