Package: pdfarranger
Version: 1.11.1-2
Severity: grave
Hi,
on my sid system, pdfarranger fails to start:
$ pdfarranger
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/bin/pdfarranger", line 33, in <module>
sys.exit(load_entry_point('pdfarranger==1.11.1', 'console_scripts',
'pdfarranger')())
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^^
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/pdfarranger/pdfarranger.py", line 2846,
in main
PdfArranger().run(sys.argv)
~~~~~~~~~~~^^

multiprocessing.set_start_method('spawn')

File "/usr/lib/python3.13/multiprocessing/context.py", line 247, in
set_start_method
raise RuntimeError('context has already been set')
RuntimeError: context has already been set
zsh: exit 1 pdfarranger
In a (somewhat cleaner) sid VM, I could not initially reproduce the bug, then
after upgrading the system I could.
So I suspect the root cause is in another package.
