I'm not sure if this will interest many people, but anyway. I'm compiling with clang and getting the following error:
../input.c:1881:5: error: ignoring return value of function declared with 'warn_unused_result' attribute [-Werror,-Wunused-result].
For my own use, I simply apply a patch to input.c:
if (pipe2(chan, O_CLOEXEC) == -1) {
perror("pipe2 failed");
exit(EXIT_FAILURE);
}
error when building with clang:

The correct place for the license would be "$pkgdir"/usr/share/licenses/foot-git according to https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#license. At least in theory a license for the stable or the non-stable flavour of a program can be different. Also namcap lists this as error.
What's the reason for the split package? Packaging guidelines suggest sticking as close as possible to upstream.
This split makes it rather tricky to switch between foot and foot-git because the latter is split into two packages (so one has to remember to install two packages when switching).
@whynothugo: the theme files are in a separate package, foot-themes-git. The package is built by the same (this) PKGBUILD.
Actually, true is the upstream default, but I see you've added -Dthemes=false here. Can you just remove that and leave the upstream default when building?
Theme files are missing. Can you add -Dthemes=true to meson?
I have a question like what does this apps do if it is theme changer and setter then how do we do that? If there is a foot-themes command i dont have that and if it only installs themes then where is it installed

The foot and foot-terminfo packages have been updated:
In other words, foot will default to the terminfo provided by ncurses. You can optionally install foot-terminfo, and set "term=foot-extra" in foot.ini to use foot's terminfo instead, which has a couple of non-standard capabilities (mainly targeting tmux).
