The PKGBUILD also install the systemd unit files and the required TOML file for the greetd configuration?

The (nushell) script I used to use to install the whole cosmic-epoch sysext includes the steps for making it possible to run cosmic-greeter to run as an actual greeter (instead of only a lock screen): https://gitlab.com/jokeyrhyme/dotfiles/-/blob/17aa5525cd30a80df0bba09b84f6c0f085593e76/packages/cosmic-update.nu

I also had an issue with installing this package. Like others have said using a clean chroot works but if you want to install it without that set the env var GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1. e.g. GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 paru -S cosmic-greeter-git.

I am not sure why the issue occurs but it is due to having git lfs installed in your ~/.gitconfig. This means it will attempt to download the lfs files on git clone which fails for some reason. Adding GIT_LFS_SKIP_SMUDGE=1 disables downloading the lfs files on clone and they are still downloaded successfully later by the manual prepare steps.

Broken for me as well, with the same lfs error

Still didn't work for me in a clean chroot. I got it installed by cloning the upstream repo manually and removing the clone commands from the PKGBUILD.

@DEC05EBA: I'm sure. Do a clean build / build in a clean chroot.

You sure? I still get the same error. I cleaned cache to make sure it's building clean.

@DEC05EBA: Fixed.
