The foot and foot-terminfo packages have been updated:

  • The terminfo definitions in foot-terminfo has been renamed to foot-extra and foot-extra-direct
  • foot-terminfo is now an optional dependency for foot
  • foot still defaults to TERM=foot

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).

Build dependency git is missing. Fails to build on a clean chroot.

Can you add git to the makedepends?

@alerque thanks, adding conflicts=(foot) didn't work for me when I tested yesterday, despite having depends=(foot-git). But, I didn't test with just depends=(foot-git). That does appear to do the trick. Thanks!

@3np should be fixed now. Let me know if you're still having issues.

I think you can get around the packaging differences by making the themes-git package depends=(foot-git). That should keep it from being paired with the [community] package. Its also possible (but I didn't test) that adding conflicts=(foot) to the themes could work. The fact that foot-git provides foot shouldn't mess up the conflicts, conflicts are automatically mutual but I don't thing they transfer to anything other than exact pkgname matches (unlike provides which are more portable).

@3np not sure how to make that work; if I add conflicts=(foot), then it will also conflict with foot-git since it provides=(foot).

Right now, the only solution I see is to do what the foot package in [community] does - remove the foot-themes-git package and include the themes in foot-git.

As foot has now moved into main repos it now includes the themes in this package. So foot should be added to conflicts.

@andreafeletto my plan is to keep packaging foot-terminfo, as an optional dependency, with renamed terminfos (to be able to install it side-by-side with ncurses).

This, since the ncurses' versions of foot's terminfo lack a couple of non-standard capabilities. https://codeberg.org/dnkl/foot/src/commit/347b90eaaea79863611f3fd405611e482ed3196d/INSTALL.md#other

Now that the terminfo files are in ncurses (in the testing repo for now), foot-terminfo-git should be removed from the dependencies, otherwise it is not possible to install it due to the file conflicts.

@danekl Thanks, foot now successfully builds on river. I thought, it was an issue on river’s side.
