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.

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 I got around the outdated vte3 problem by installing the vte3-git package instead.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

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.

branchard commented on 2017-04-27 20:42 (UTC)

Yea I'm using Gnome 3.22. I'm not able to update vte3 to 0.48, the lastest version on my repos is the 0.46.1.

hoschi commented on 2017-04-27 19:13 (UTC)

Hmm. Awkward error-message! Can you do me a favor and upgrade your vte3 on the current release 0.48. At least, this indicates, you are still using GNOME 3.22. Right?

branchard commented on 2017-04-27 19:02 (UTC)

Hi, I have the following error: configure: error: Package requirements (vte-2.91 >= 0.48.2 glib-2.0 >= 2.42.0 gio-2.0 >= 2.34.0 gtk+-3.0 >= 3.12.0 gsettings-desktop-schemas >= 0.1.0 dconf >= 0.14.0 uuid libpcre2-8 >= 10.00 x11) were not met: Requested 'vte-2.91 >= 0.48.2' but version of vte is 0.46.1 Consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if you installed software in a non-standard prefix. Alternatively, you may set the environment variables TERM_CFLAGS and TERM_LIBS to avoid the need to call pkg-config. See the pkg-config man page for more details.

No problem. I've also learned something :)
