For whatever reason, displaylink 6.3-1 requires evdi<1.15. Here's what worked for me:

Uninstall existing installation as per @destroyedlolo comment.
yay -Rs evdi-dkms evdi-dkms-debug displaylink
rm -rf .cache/yay/

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/evdi-dkms.git
cd evdi-dkms
git log
git checkout 53eb900bfbb036fb5695ca08f8f3d80a06b5f80c (this was the last 1.14 commit)
makepkg -si
yay -S displaylink
sudo systemctl enable displaylink
sudo reboot

During installation, I've also got complains for existing Pythton module since I've tried to install evdi multiple ways, so I've deleted it

sudo rm /usr/lib/debug/usr/lib/python3.14/site-packages/PyEvdi.cpython-314-x86_64-linux-gnu.so.debug

No compilation problems, sorry.

Sorry I didn't look close enough. Issue fixed. Conflict with pyenv.

Thanks for maintaining this package! Anyone else getting this error?
