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


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.

@D3vil0p3r It's already gnome-45.

@Dawdleming gnome-shell 45 is out in the stable repo.

@D3vil0p3r When gnome-shell is in the stable repo.

When it will be updated for GNOME 45?

griffi-gh commented on 2023-09-02 23:24 (UTC)

yep, everything works fine.

griffi-gh commented on 2023-09-02 23:05 (UTC)

Ok, i will check again right now.

@griffi-gh I've just disabled rt-scheduler stuffs on both packages (as gnome 45 will bring real time thread by default.)

See if this fixes.

While mutter-performance works great this package causes multiple issues for me

  • Xwayland always autostarts with the system (logs say that Xwayland-on-demand is disabled??)
  • Geoclue dies during boot
  • Screencasting doesnt work )no option, screencast service unavailable)
  • Gnome-shell sometimes fails to start

(even with rt-scheduler option disabled, just with this installed)
replacing gnome-shell-performance with gnome-shell fixes all of these issues

Do you have time to update it? Thank you for your work

@glorious-yellow, I had this too. The culprit turned out "Open Weather" extension, not this package.
