This is a -git package that uses the latest commit when rebuilt.

  • Do not flag for mere version bumps. The version is updated on rebuilds.
  • People using AUR helpers may have to manually trigger rebuilds.
  • If having problems, try building in a clean chroot.

Following recent changes to kwin, this is a split package providing subpackages for both Wayland and X11.

  • Set _use_kwin_x11=false for Wayland only. See PKGBUILD for details.

Comment for packaging issues. Errors during build or installation may be related to packaging. Avoid opening new upstream issues for packaging problems. If in doubt, ask here first.

Flag for common problems with standard solutions, like depends updates. Describe the reason and include relevant error messages in the flag.

@guiodic Made a mistake with path. Fixed here. Rebuilt on Chaotic AUR.

I installed the x11 split package from chaotic-aur and it does not work on x11. It does not even appear in the system settings

@octia "for everyone" means I won't entirely strip out X11 from the package because there are still people using it.

You can try one of the following:

# force yay to pass correct flags to makepkg
yay --mflags='-sr' kwin-effect-rounded-corners-git

# build for wayland only
_use_kwin_x11=false yay kwin-effect-rounded-corners-git

Consider adding the above mflags to yay config.

  1. yay --save
  2. edit ~/.config/yay/config.json

@xiota I don't know what I'm supposed to do with _use_kwin_x11=false. Where do I put it so that yay does it properly?

If it's for everyone, why does this package not work with yay?

Alternatively, which package do I download for OOTB wayland compatibility? I see the x11-only one but not the wayland one

@octia Read the PKGBUILD... AUR is for everyone.

(This is a split package providing for both Wayland and X11. Set _use_kwin_x11=false for Wayland only.)

Yay says:

==> Missing dependencies: -> kwin-x11

But I don't see kwin-x11 here in the dependencies. What am I missing?

Installs and works properly on Wayland does not work on x11.

Broken on x11 with the split of kwin into kwin-wayland and kwin-x11 on KDE 6.4.

I opened an issue here: https://github.com/matinlotfali/KDE-Rounded-Corners/issues/374

breach commented on 2024-12-13 16:25 (UTC)

the PKGBUILD for this package is broken, as i tried to build it using paru and makepkg on the main system, and then tried building in clean chroot and succeeded. I would be happy to provide the compiler's error messages during build if the maintainer is eager to fix it.

NOTE: the source package has been updates two weeks ago
