If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.


Note that a debug option is disabled in this package.

To enable the check() process, set an env: _enable_check=y

To disable building the docs package, set an env: _disable_docs=y


If the building process is getting failed on check() like

gnome-shell/src/st/meson.build:195:2: ERROR: Dependency "libmutter-test-11" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake

then you might want to do one of these:

0) Unset an env: _enable_check=y

1) Rebuild mutter-performance package with _enable_check=y env.

And try again.


The optional performance patches are by default enabled.

When trying to build this, MR 2519 fails to apply cleanly. Since the comment above the patch indicates that it was added when it was still in review, I imagine it can just be disabled now.

@glorious-yellow We have no difference with 43.1. Check the commit and the patch I added.

@glitsj16 I will change it in 43.0-1

Just noticed 42.5-2 uses git config --global protocol.file.allow always to deal with recent git changes (see this). Although this works, it's not very nice to alter users git config. The bug report recommends using git -c protocol.file.allow=always submodule update instead. You might want to consider this.

@angryfog And it should be fixed in 42.5-2

Hello, Since I have reinstalled my archlinux, I can't build this package with paru like pikaur. The output of the command can be found here : https://pastebin.com/Cw4btuJD Does someone already have an issue like that? It's not a huge problem to not have this package, but I would like to have the best performance and would be very gratefull if someone could help me. Thanks you!
