hyprwm libraries

Hyprland source changes frequently, it is recommended to use the -git version of the dependent hyprwm libraries.

• hyprutils-git
• hyprcursor-git
• hyprlang-git
• hyprwayland-scanner-git

paru

paru -S --asdeps hyprutils-git hyprlang-git hyprcursor-git hyprwayland-scanner-git

yay

yay -S --asdeps hyprutils-git hyprlang-git hyprcursor-git hyprwayland-scanner-git

using ccache/sccache

Precompiled headers (PCH) was enabled by default, this would most likely invalidate the compiler cache if any of the upstream header files change. To disable PCH, add the meson build option -Db_pch=false to build().

build() {
  ...
  meson setup build \
    -D b_pch=false
  ...
}

Build with specific pull requests

Use pick_mr <pull request number> at the end of prepare() to merge pull requests locally. For example, to merge https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/pull/6268, use

prepare() {
    ...

    pick_mr 6268
}

Enable legacy renderer

In the build() function, add -D legacy_renderer=true to meson setup

Compilation errors

If you encounter compilation errors, try the following first:

• If errors are raised by generated source files under protocols/, such as protocols/linux-dmabuf-v1.hpp, then rebuild or install hyprwayland-scanner-git;
• Use -git packages for all hyprwm libraries;
• Compile with makepkg --cleanbulid.

Symbol not declared

Errors like

• <symbol> was not declared in this scope
• <symbol> has not been declared

are usually caused by missing headers. Please consider reporting this upstream or creating a pull request if it has not already been done.

Hyprland source changes frequently, it is recommended to use the -git version of the dependent hyprwm libraries.

Indeed, so can't you change the PKGBUILD to depend on the -git libraries instead of the non-git ones?

Currently, on a new system running paru -S hyprland-git will install the non-git dependencies, failing the compilation of Hyprland.

looks like hyprutils( newe repo) is needed here to build hyprland

Since latest PKGBUILD change:

when installing/updating the package. Preferably, this package would use the hyprwayland-scanner-git package.

@electwix

Update your hyprland source code. Remove --holdver flag if you use it.

I can't reproduce it. Have you tried `makepkg --cleanbuild' or deleting source files?

Been getting this issue.

@earlybird please update your local PKGBUILD file, it's probably out of sync if you're still getting the mv error.

Working pkgbuild - please change this PKGBUILD
