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.

A package for mutter (compositor) performance patches: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mutter-performance/

Warning: Before making a report of something broken, make sure it is not caused by an extension or a custom theme!

If this does not build, downgrade meson to 0.59.x.

Hi, I'm a new co-maintainer of gnome-shell-performance and mutter-performance packages. Please don't hesitate to give us/me advice and bug reports.

Thanks.

Hey all,

As you noticed, I'm not able to update this package frequently anymore (lack of time/motivation). If someone wants to help maintain this package I'll gladly add them to the maintainer list.

When preparing the package I get the following error message

Downloading then Merging 1440...
...
error: patch failed: js/ui/windowManager.js:1117
error: js/ui/windowManager.js: patch does not apply

@glorious-yellow Do you use both this package and mutter-performance? If this is the case, try to use mutter and see if it makes a difference. If not, remove '536' '1440' from the _merge_requests_to_use array of this package, rebuild and check again.

glorious-yellow commented on 2020-10-25 21:21 (UTC)

The poor performance only manifests in this package. The one from [extra] does not have the performance issues.

Terence commented on 2020-10-15 21:10 (UTC)

@glorious-yellow This package only or both this one and the one from [extra]? If the latter, consider opening a bug report upstream. Also make sure no extension is the cause of this.

glorious-yellow commented on 2020-10-15 03:58 (UTC)

I'm noticing severely worse performance especially with activities overview after updating to 3.38.

Saren commented on 2020-05-26 10:03 (UTC)

If you are experiencing shell coredump indicating st_theme_get_custom_stylesheets, try with !536.

I got crashes with wayland and adapta gtk+shell theme with this off.
