FS#1368 - [electrum] updated package still does not work

Here is the terminal output:

$ electrum
Error: No module named ‘aiorpcx’. Try ‘sudo python3 -m pip install <module-name>

I think a newer python version (e.g. 3.7) might be needed in order to get it to work as well as even after installing missing modules via pip locally the package does not run.

That issue is generated because new electrum requires dependencies such as python-aiorpcx, Arch devs added those ones to work [0]

Even if you install the missing dependencies (via pip or arch packages) electrum will likely still fail to run due to incompatibility with some packaged versions of python3.6.

It won't solve the issue because electrum requires at least 3.6.1 as minimal version [0] while we have 3.6.8 [1] in testing. Anyway, i will upgrade it from 3.6.1 to 3.6.8 in stable too.

I think so, i will check electrum requirements to upgrade some python modules while push the missing ones.

Electrum now works when installed via pip so it was definitely an issue regarding python 3.6.1. The missing packages still need to be packaged by Hyperbola. These are the packages pip installed locally (using –user flag) on my system:
Successfully installed Electrum-3.3.4 aiohttp-3.5.4 aiohttp-socks-0.2.2 aiorpcx-0.10.5 qdarkstyle-2.5.4
