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!

@chrisjbillington Thank you for your advice, the only reason why I installed Manjaro Gnome edition is this two packages (mutter performance, shell performance) . I'm on Fedora for past few years and it's quite frustrating having highend hardware and still suffer from poor desktop performance. I heard about this two patches and decide to give it a try. And I have no problem to install anything from Pamac. Just tried again and it's went flawlessly.

@shrisha it sounds like you've messed up your mirrorlist. Presumably you are having trouble installing any other packages as well? If so, the issue is probably not anything to do with this package. Once you've got things working with installing regular software from the repositories, you can think about this package again.

Having said that, if you are new to Manjaro, perhaps consider just running the default gnome-shell from the repositories for a while. There's plenty to learn and tinker with without the higher-than-normal chance of messing up your system that comes with installing a custom build of the DE.

Thank you @kode54 and @Terence. But now I'm getting new error: no servers configured for repository :)

I added chaotic-aur. Same problem with and without.

Terence commented on 2020-04-20 11:13 (UTC)

@kode54 Thanks I added it. Hopefully it fixes @shrisha issue.

@shrisha: I was stating the actions the maintainer would need to apply, but you could apply them to your local copy of the PKGBUILD before makepkg building it yourself as well.

Basically, you just need to git clone the read-only repository linked at the top of this page, and modify the PKGBUILD in a text editor. Find the line with the provides declaration, and add gnome-shell=$epoch:$pkgver to the setting, after the existing gnome-shell=$pkgver. Strangely, I have no such thing in my local chaotic-aur built copy, yet the gnome-shell-extension-arc-menu-git package installs just fine with this package and mutter-performance.

Maybe also try the chaotic-aur repository builds first? Assuming they even work with Manjaro. I have no idea what's up with forks of Arch, and they tend to break random things, hence users are asked to consult Manjaro's support resources for their specific issues.

@kode54 Could you please specify my actions for this? I'm very new to Manjaro. I just downloaded latest iso this morning 20.rc2. Installed on new ssd. system specs if required:

OS: Manjaro Linux x86_64 Host: TRX40 AORUS MASTER -CF Kernel: 5.6.5-1-MANJARO Uptime: 1 hour, 31 mins Packages: 1167 (pacman) Shell: bash 5.0.16 Resolution: 3840x2160 DE: GNOME WM: Mutter WM Theme: Adwaita-maia Theme: Adwaita-maia [GTK2/3] Icons: Papirus-Dark-Maia [GTK2/3] Terminal: gnome-terminal CPU: AMD Ryzen Threadripper 3970X (64) @ 3.900GHz GPU: NVIDIA TITAN RTX Memory: 4177MiB / 64258MiB

@shrisha: needs another provides entry that also declares the gnome-shell with the epoch in the version string. Basically a declaration like:

gnome-shell=$epoch:$pkgver

After the existing two.

shrisha commented on 2020-04-19 04:20 (UTC) (edited on 2020-04-19 04:35 (UTC) by shrisha)

could not satisfy dependencies: removing gnome-shell breaks dependency 'gnome-shell>=1:3.36.0-1' required by gnome-shell-extension-arc-menu

???

I can't delete Arc menu extension.
