@chauncey The issue doesn't reproduce for all Arch users (including myself) and the discussion in that thread indicates that switching to epoll doesn't work for all users. At this time I think we should leave it to individual users to either patch the PKGBUILD themselves or build Ghostty from source with that patch if it works for them.

@gpanders High iowait and general slowness on archlinux. maybe we should build with this fix see: https://github.com/ghostty-org/ghostty/discussions/3224#discussioncomment-11691632

why not add -Dcpu=x86_64_v3 to the build arguments to further optimize performance considering majority of modern pcs will be able to utilize better instruction sets.

@alerque You’re now a co-maintainer.

alerque commented on 2024-12-27 21:54 (UTC)

Please also see the terminfo and shell-extensions package split in the official stable packages, the same split should be applied here with -git variants. If you want help with this feel free to add me as a co- or request a patch.

I'm getting an EndOfStream error, would you have any idea what it is?

EDIT: this seems to happen only when I build from AUR. I managed to build from the sources

alerque commented on 2024-12-26 21:51 (UTC)

This is installing files to the packaging in build() and building twice for no gain. You might take some tips from the stable packaging I pasted to [extra] just now for a way to actually build and package in two phases. I also reported the broken DESTDIR handling upstream.

Ghostty has been released as today. Can you update the PKGBUILD?

gpanders commented on 2024-10-31 00:23 (UTC)

The issue with linking the system freetype library has been resolved upstream, so this AUR package now uses all libraries provided by Arch packages.
