@webreflection: I updated this package the day before the wpewebkit update hit the stable repositories. It should be all fine already.

This package can't find wpewebkit>=2.42.5-3 because the latest is 2.42.5-2: https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/wpewebkit/

did anyone forget to publish latest wpewebkit too? 🤔

@webreflection: Build issues should be now fixed with the update to 0.12.0—I hope that helps!

FYI: this package has issues on Raspberry Pi Zero 2 W where wpewebkit doesn't work at all and cog fails to build, saying missing dependency on lib-wpewebkit or something similar. To make it work I had to use wpewebkit-bin and cog-wpe-bin (soon to be renamed as cog-bin I guess) but while I have tried on the Zero 2 64 bit only, I think the current "duo" fails on Raspberry Pi 4 too.

It used to work without issues no more than a month ago.

@sotitrox: You may need to pass a --platform=<name> argument in the command line when running cog. For example use --platform=fdo (or --platform=gtk4) when running inside a Wayland compositor, or --platform=x11 under X.

@wallace11: Try installing the wpebackend-fdo package, and use cog --platform=fdo ... to run Cog in a Wayland compositor.

Getting the following error upon installation:

wpe: could not load the impl library. Is there any backend installed?: libWPEBackend-default.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Tried to dig in a little bit but couldn't find the source of the problem :\

Confirmed on two different machines.
