The dwl repository has been split into two branches to reduce the number of support requests caused by not reading the README. :) The default "main" branch is for building against wlroots release, and you can edit the PKGBUILD to use the "wlroots-next" branch for building against wlroots-git.

If makepkg is confused, you might also need to remove the existing clone.

Thanks for pointing it out. I've updated the way custom config.h works - if you leave the empty file in place, the default configuration will be used, and if you provide your own, it will be copied in. This way the AUR package doesn't have to manually track changes to upstream config.h options.

Hi djpohly, The error seems to be caused by different versions of config.h. Please re-upload config.h

Who is not going to change the lines of PKGBUILD. There is a comment in the PKGBUILD about this, but it was not clear to me what exactly I should do.

It was: source=('git+https://github.com/djpohly/dwl')

became: source=('git+https://github.com/djpohly/dwl#branch=wlroots-next')

Unfortunately, I can't reproduce this. If I start with a clean directory with only the PKGBUILD in it, the package builds successfully. Maybe if someone else has the same problem, they will be able to provide the solution.

I deleted the clone but it doesn't help.

Helped by replacing wlroots on wlroots-git.
