Hey everyone.

Requesting for comaintainers on this package since there's been several circumstances that happened that make it hard to maintain all the packages I normally attend to.

See

https://lists.archlinux.org/pipermail/aur-general/2019-August/035332.html

for more information.

If you're interested in co-maintaining, don't forget to leave a comment (or email me, or toot me on Mastodon).

@ShadowKyogre thanks for looking at this :) That's definitely a much cleaner way of doing it. I've just tested the patched version and can confirm that it builds and runs with Compiz 0.9 successfully.

Hi @Chazza. https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/commit/b29abb8 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/commit/c7b1036 There were some relevant commits in the git repo that I backported for a more seamless way to enable it until another release comes out. Which gets passed into the source code here: https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L35-L41 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L630-L658 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L2098-L2109 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L2135-L2139 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L2572-L2595 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L2606-L2614 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L2620-L2624 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L2681-L2713 https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/src/main.c#L6016-L6021 The old way of detecting it passes a fixed value: https://github.com/compiz-reloaded/emerald/blob/ee18dc7cd7b62b328ace974f1b80258a32bceaa0/configure.ac#L76-L83 ---- So here's the PKGBUILD patch that has the backport: https://ptpb.pw/BZXF - raw patch https://ptpb.pw/BZXF/diff?style=monokai - if you want some syntax highlighting Could you test this on your end to make sure it compiles properly before I push it?

Hi. As emerald 0.8.12 has support for Compiz 0.9 I was wondering if maybe you would consider adding support for building against Compiz 0.9 to this PKGBUILD? The relevant configure option is --enable-decor09. Using this in the build function worked for me: _options="--prefix=/usr --with-gtk=2.0" if [ "$(pkg-config --modversion libdecoration)">="0.9" ]; then _options="$_options --enable-decor09"; fi ./configure $_options This package could then replace emerald0.9 which is utterly dead upstream. Thanks for your consideration

@JNNYBLZ: I'm currently in the progress of migrating the tarballs to the ones on github. Furthermore, the errors you're running into are caused by glib 2.48. See https://git.gnome.org/browse/glib/commit/?id=6b57719 for more info. Hold on for a day or two while we get this sorted upstream (( PKGBUILDs for the tarballs on github are ready, I'm just waiting for this )).
