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 works perfectly.

Hi! I'm trying to build this package but http://mirror.nbtelecom.com.br is down, or at least i get a time out error.

How can i make it so if a mirror is down makepkg tries again in a different one instead o cancelling the whole thing?

EDIT: I manually downloaded the tar, checked sha256sum, extracted it to ./src and deleted the source link and sha256sum from PKGBUILD. However, for future reference, isn't it there a way to go to the next mirror automatically?

I can just guess, but it clearly states that the downloaded sources for gnome-terminal are not valid. Probably they are really ditched? So I would delete 'gnome-terminal-3.26.2.tar.xz' (our just delete everything there) and start over again.

I've got this error while installing this!

Please install the package group ‘base-devel’. It is an implicit requirement for using AUR and includes GCC, PATCH and so on.

Hi Branchard, I'm running Manjaro, not arch, but I received the same error message. I got around the outdated vte3 problem by installing the vte3-git package instead. After installing vte3-git, the gnome-terminal-transparency update installed without problem. I hope this helps you. sb

branchard commented on 2017-04-27 23:44 (UTC)

Ok Thank you, that works fine !

In this case you will likely need the old PKGBUILD for 3.22, instead of the current one for 3.24: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/snapshot/aur-d474eb8b5491b39f881573b005351da40f37dbc9.tar.gz I'm looking forward, that this will solve your problem. Probably the internals from gnome-terminal need 3.24 and use some internal number like 'vte-2.91' for the API-Version.
