Needs PRESSURE_VESSEL_FILESYSTEMS_RO="/usr/lib/steamvr/alvr/" to make it work. Please include this.

As far as i tested, with mandatory vrmonitor launch argument, i did not need PRESSURE_VESSEL_FILESYSTEMS_RO anymore.

If anyone still requires it for alvr to function, please let me know, otherwise i will unpin current comments.

This package, along with alvr-nvidia, simply doesn't work. I don't know why exactly, but I've been unsuccessfully trying to to connect alvr to steamVR for 2 days. It has always failed at detecting the device. Everything suddenly worked when I switched to the alvr-launcher AUR package instead.

All I can really do is add a message on install, since this probably has to go into Steam's launch settings for SteamVR

Build fails in a clean chroot. Seems like it is missing a dependency on libpipewire:

 thread 'main' panicked at /build/.cargo/registry/src/index.crates.io-6f17d22bba15001f/libspa-sys-0.8.0/build.rs:10:10:

  > PKG_CONFIG_ALLOW_SYSTEM_CFLAGS=1 pkg-config --libs --cflags libpipewire-0.3 libpipewire-0.3 >= 0.3

  The system library `libpipewire-0.3` required by crate `libspa-sys` was not found.
  The file `libpipewire-0.3.pc` needs to be installed and the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable must contain its parent directory.
  The PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable is not set.

  HINT: if you have installed the library, try setting PKG_CONFIG_PATH to the directory containing `libpipewire-0.3.pc`.
