@Strit Than you for your reply. Judging by the package name, this should be a qt6 exclusive package, while Qt5-base is optional and not must be required. As personal thought ,I think it's more appropriate to list qt5-base as an optional dependency. It's up to you, of course. Any way, thank you for maintaining the package.

@knm100

https://gitlab.com/marcusbritanicus/QtGreet/-/blob/main/meson.build?ref_type=heads#L79 lists mpv as a hard dependency because of video background feature.

https://gitlab.com/marcusbritanicus/QtGreet/-/blob/main/meson.build?ref_type=heads#L57 lists qt5 core components for the qt5 version of this package. This PKGBUILD is a split-package, so it builds both qt5 and qt6 versions, but installs only the one you selected.

both mpv and qt5-base is not needed for compling the qtgreeter. why did you put them in the PKGBUILD?

I followed the notes on the GitLab page and added -Dbuild_greetwl=false to the lines that started with meson in PKGBUILD, worked for me.

@jessFrey I solved it by symlinking /usr/lib/pkgconfig/wlroots-0.18.pc to /usr/lib/pkgconfig/wlroots.pc

But now i get /usr/include/qt/QtCore/qfutureinterface.h:284:37: note: remove the ‘< >’ [68/70] Compiling C++ object qtgreet.p/src_widgets_power_power.cpp.o In file included from /usr/include/qt/QtCore/qfuture.h:45, from /usr/include/qt/QtCore/QtCore:97, from /usr/include/qt/QtWidgets/QtWidgetsDepends:3, from /usr/include/qt/QtWidgets/QtWidgets:3, from ../src/widgets/power/power.cpp:21: /usr/include/qt/QtCore/qfutureinterface.h:284:37: warning: template-id not allowed for constructor in C++20 [-Wtemplate-id-cdtor] 284 | explicit QFutureInterface<void>(State initialState = NoState) | ^~~~~ /usr/include/qt/QtCore/qfutureinterface.h:284:37: note: remove the ‘< >’ ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

I have wlroots installed, but I'm getting an error about not finding wlroots not being installed: ``Run-time dependency wlroots found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)

meson.build:166:18: ERROR: Dependency "wlroots" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake``

package overrides custom config-files in /etc/qtgreet. Please add backup-array to PKGBUILD.

Adopting so I can take this out back and rewrite it.

Hi, why install script touches greetd related things? greeter user, /etc/greetd and greetd.service are all managed by greetd which is listed as dependency here.
