@mrdotx, added the setcap

@vnepogodin: For some time now, there has been upstream a new make option to grant access to performance monitoring without root, that has also been added to btop in the arch packages:

  DESTDIR="${pkgdir}" make PREFIX=/usr setcap

Can you add that to the package section, please?

Intel iGPU support requires "setcap cap_perfmon=+ep /usr/bin/btop", could it be added to the pkgbuild?

cybersentinel commented on 2025-02-21 14:15 (UTC)

Could you add Intel GPU support too?

@vnepogodin: I've patched it to support CPU power reporting: http://0x0.st/8PNH.patch

Merge with:

git am -s < <(curl -s http://0x0.st/8wMS.mbox)

@jxir

I've added lowdown for man page generation

jxir commented on 2024-03-24 03:01 (UTC)

Please add lowdown as a build time dependency. This is needed to generate the man page.

Thank you very much!

@buonhobo

I've added GPU support, static linking got disabled, static rocm backend got disabled.

@vnepogodin

They enabled official gpu support by default as you can see in https://github.com/aristocratos/btop#gpu-compatibility.

I would suggest adding rocm-smi-lib and whatever's required for NVIDIA gpus as optional dependencies, since they are needed for GPU monitoring to work.

GPU monitoring currently doesn't work with static linking, so I had to remove the STATIC=true flag from the PKGBUILD
