@m0r4a AGS does not depend on graphviz directly, so adding it to the dependencies makes no sense. Here's what likely happened: you ran paru -S aylurs-gtk-shell-git (or yay or whatever), which then installs some astal libs as dependencies, which pulls in vala as a make dependency, which in turn depends on graphviz, which was already installed on your system (that lib is used by quite a few packages after all) . Recently graphviz was updated yo a newer version, so the vala package was rebuilt against the new graphviz version. She you tried yo install this package, you pulled in vala which was linked against the new graphviz version without updating graphviz, resulting in this error. Updating graphviz then fixed this.

This is the reason Arch does not support partial updates. Always use -Syu when updating/installing.

I got the following error during build:

valadoc: error while loading shared libraries: libcgraph.so.8: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It was fixed after installing graphviz. Maybe it should be added as a dependency?

go: cannot find main module, but found .git/config in /home/samtheradiant/.cache/yay/aylurs-gtk-shell-git/src/ags
        to create a module there, run:
        go mod init
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
 -> error making: aylurs-gtk-shell-git-exit status 4

I am getting this error when installing the package.

It appears that in the PKGBUILD file the URL for libgnome-volume-control is wrong.

It was just missing the .git at the end. Without it, it seems to automatically redirect to https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libgnome-volume-control.git. I never noticed any problems with it. I changed it to the correct url to avoid the redirect.

It appears that in the PKGBUILD file the URL for libgnome-volume-control is wrong. If anyone encounters the same issue I solved it by inserting in the source array the proper link: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/libgnome-volume-control.git

Pasting that in solved my problem, hope this helps someone else that might encounter the issue.
