Honestly it shouldn't matter if the man pages are outdated or not, its part of the source and PKGBUILD's should be building the source as close to accuracy as possible.
No, I will wait for upstream to do something about the outdated mnapages and the crippled hyprctl help messages.
No, I'm referring to a file that it meant to be installed in /usr/share/xdg-desktop-portal/hyprland-portals.conf (see L72 of the Makefile in the repo). This file tells xdg-desktop-portal the preferred portal that Hyprland wants to use, fixing an age old bug where other portals would conflict under Hyprland. Your PKGBUILD does not include it at all.
̶D̶o̶n̶e̶ Removed, conflicts with repo.

Tips & tricks, common issues
using ccache/sccache
Precompiled headers (PCH) was enabled by default, this would most likely invalidate the compiler cache if any of the upstream header files change. To disable PCH, add the meson build option
-Db_pch=false
tobuild()
.Build with specific pull requests
Use
pick_mr <pull request number>
at the end ofprepare()
to merge pull requests locally. For example, to merge https://github.com/hyprwm/Hyprland/pull/6268, useEnable legacy renderer
In the
build()
function, add-D legacy_renderer=true
to meson setupCompilation errors
If you encounter compilation errors, try the following first:
protocols/
, such asprotocols/linux-dmabuf-v1.hpp
, then rebuild or installhyprwayland-scanner-git
;makepkg --cleanbuild
.Symbol not declared
Errors like
<symbol> was not declared in this scope
<symbol> has not been declared
are usually caused by missing headers. Please consider reporting this upstream or creating a pull request if it has not already been done.
