Hi!

This is less invasive than gnome-terminal-fedora because it doesn't include the notification feature. Therefore you can stay with the regular vte3 and vte-common! To fulfill the makedepends you probably need to install the packages itstool, docbook-xsl, appstream-glib and yelp-tools. Ensure that you have installed the package group base-devel, which is a requirement to use AUR.

Top Workaround with devilspie, fore- and background are transparent.

Bottom Background transparency with gnome-terminal, better readability.

@Users of Manjaro

Please check if Manjaro is providing the same version of GNOME, especially the dependencies vte3 and vte-common. If you want the package for an older release, you can pick the required files from the git log.

It is not related the the graphics card. Seems like Arch (on Wayland) is affected but Fedora not.

I am using a Nvidia card, a GTX 1660 Ti I believe. This is a fairly recent change (or I noticed it fairly recently).

I confirm this. The background becomes black with F11 when using Wayland upon an Intel HD3000 (Sandy Bridge). But when using X11 it remains transparent! With Fedora 37 running Wayland upon an RX 560 (AMD Polaris 21) the background remains transparent. Also within a virtual-machine, again with Fedora 37 and Wayland.

What graphics card are you using? Also an Intel?

serene-arc commented on 2022-11-14 09:01 (UTC)

@hoschi That's not the same fullscreen, I mean F11 where it fills the entire screen.

@serene-arc
I've tested with the light and dark theme on X11 and Wayland, it works fine in fullscreen (i.e. ALT+F10). Maybe an issue with a special theme?

I've been having an issue since the recent Gnome update. Terminals have transparency when in a window, but the transparency disappears when it's moved into full-screen mode. Is this an issue with the package or Gnome?

I've updated the package.

Please check that debugedit is installed. The package is part of base-devel since October. It would be nice if "base-devel" also becomes a regular package like "base".

@hoschi So please notice when you completely update it. And I'll install it again. Thanks.

Good idea! You right. I hopefully will update the package to the new release by the end of this week. This shall fix your issue automatically.

And I didn’t read the message of ntdsrd right. It says actually „Run-time dependency libnautilus-extension“. The internal buildfile of 43 requires „libnautilus-extension-4“ but the one for 42 depends on „libnautilus-extension” without the 4. The name has changed! The number is now part of the name. The newest GNOME will likely provide only “libnautilus-extension-4” and it cannot succeeded with “libnautilus-extension”. Probably upstream had to break compatibility for some reason entirely, just bumping the version number would’ve kept compatibility.

Thanks for your both hints.

@hoschi

I have the libnautilus-extension package installed in my system, however the pkgbuild insists that the library isn't found. Could this be because libnautilus-extension got updated to version 43 upon the GNOME 43 release to the Arch repos? Same thing happens when trying to build gnome-terminal-fedora
