I build in a clean chroot. If you have any issues building with makepkg or an AUR helper, that means there may be an issue in your local environment or your AUR helper may not actually be helping.

AUR comments are not the place for troubleshooting. There are forums and things for that. Please only comment if there is a packaging issue.

@alphabitserial: Implemented, thanks.

As of this change, it looks like distro packages should provide a separate dconf profile for COSMIC: https://github.com/pop-os/cosmic-session/pull/90

I believe that not having one in place is the reason why on recent versions of COSMIC, GTK applications are not picking up preferences like "Show minimize/maximize button in titlebar", although it's possible I'm off-base.

@mmstick: There are separate Vulkan drivers for Intel, AMD & NVIDIA. See the Vulkan wiki article for more info. Keep in mind Arch is a DIY distro. It's up to the user to install which packages they need.

I would recommend to depend on all Mesa Vulkan drivers, with a conflict on amdvlk. It's better to have more than you need, than not have it at all.

@mmstick: FYI, vulkan-driver is not a package itself. Several packages provide vulkan-driver and a user is prompted which to install depending on their hardware.

It cannot be a hard dependency as in a clean chroot, amdvlk will be installed as it's the first one alphabetically.

Still getting a lot of issue reports on GitHub and Reddit about icons not rendering, or high CPU usage from LLVM Vulkan software rendering. Vulkan drivers should not be optional. Many Arch users don't realize that they aren't installed.

@yochananmarqos: Trying to install on ARM device but switcheroo-control-git won’t build. I tried modifying the build with aarch64 but no luck. Thx.

oh man, you r right, maxime packaged them in the normal package repo. that was quicker than expected tbh ... but very cool. thank you guys! and - it installs in 10 seconds hahaha with no build :) :)

@soloturn: The repo packages are already in a cosmic group.

can we please add the "cosmic" group again to install all cosmic stuff? or you prefer another name like cosmic-de ? my original goal was to have 2 ways to install: "cosmic" for complete install, like the "gnome" group, including all cosmic software like text editor. and then one package wich brings in minimal dependencies so the compositor comes up with something to start an application. barebone. what you tihnk?
