Does this still work for you?
I get an immediate failure on the service with:
dotool: failed to create virtual keyboard device: could not open device file. Searching leads to a similar year-old bug related toydotool, but that was resolved withsystemd >= 254.2-1(1), or an open nixpkgs ticket (2), or an unanswered mailing list entry (3). I haven't used this in a while so I can't trace this problem back to any particular update.Edit: Nevermind, works again - don't know what the problem was.

Could you please update dtoold.service to include an [Install] section like (https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/dotoold.service?h=dotool-git)?
Adding this section will enable the service to be started automatically.

Samuel.Gilbert: Thanks for letting me know, the package has been updated to correct the permissions on that file :)

/usr/lib/systemd/user/dotoold.serviceshould not be executable; other service files in that folder are not.hamblingreen commented on 2023-08-21 08:00 (UTC)
kyechou: I apologize for the missing
libxkbcommondependency, it has been added as a make dependency like it is in the Alpine package. As for thedotooldsystemd service, that has been added as well. Let me know if there's anything else I missed :)kyechou commented on 2023-08-20 19:18 (UTC)
Missing dependency:
libxkbcommon. Thanks!Also, it'd be great if this package could provide

Hey, binaries need to be installed to /usr/bin rather than /usr/local/bin.
Also it would be good to have 644 perms on /etc/udev/rules.d/80-dotool.rules.
