This seriously needs to be in community, awesome drop-in replacement for kwin.

can not login from sddm ever palsma is 5.23, btw, how to set disman? there is no kwinft wiki page.

@veganvelociraptr If all kde packages are updated to 5.23 then kwinft should work properly. Are you trying to use KWayland on Nvidia? Try to check the output of dismanctl -i or dismanctl -o

My arch system is fully is updated, including kdecoration (no, not git). Yet I've not been able to get kwinft to work after its latest update. After logging in thru sddm, everything crashes.

@IncredibleLaser I changed my mind in between my reply and yours and went along with your suggestion. It will inconvenience new downloaders of kwinft until 5.23 hits [extra] or until the maintainer of kdecoration-git modifies their PKGBUILD. If you don't mind, I'm going to add your suggestion as a comment on that AUR page.

Forgot about that as well, but if don't add the version in the provides entry, version checks such as this one fail. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#provides check the note. So I think a provides=("${pkgname%-git}=$pkgver") in the kdecoration-git PKGBUILD should do it

IncredibleLaser commented on 2021-10-16 18:05 (UTC)

@abellan424, this in my opinion is the wrong way to tackle the problem. kdecoration is on 5.23 since 9 days, though in [testing]. Same for the rest of the suite.

So if you want to use this as a drop-in for kwin, you need to have [testing] enabled anyways (I guess). A better solution would be to have kdecoration>=${pkgver} in the depends array. kdecoration-git provides kdecoration and is versioned correctly so it would still work if people want, but at the same time would allow this to be build against the packages in [testing].
