Issue launching MusicBrainz Picard

Issues & Assistance
1

I installed Picard from the extra repo with sudo pacman -S picard without errors.

However, launching the app fails with the following error:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/picard", line 4, in <module>
    from picard.tagger import main
ModuleNotFoundError: No module named 'picard'

It’s a Python-based app and it looks like it cannot find its own main module. Are we supposed to install it in a special way given the restrictions on installing python modules globally?

Python received an upgrade this past week, I suspect it needs to be rebuilt.

MMmm, I’ve not updated yet, still on python 3.12.

And wouldn’t a compatibility problem with the python version generate other kind of errors than just not being able to find the package?

After doing a full system update the appn now launches correctly :slight_smile:
