@egolep try downgrading your version of Zig to a pre-0.16 version, Zig has recently changed their build process to no longer use zig fetch.

Am I the only one getting and error due to the build.zig file being missing?

That should make pakaging easier. Thanks!

@aeneby I managed to get it working. It requires a absolute path to function right, upstream has changed the way the build works so it no longer installs kwim in 0.2.3 see issue https://github.com/kewuaa/kwm/issues/190 so it will become a hard depend when 0.2.3 gets tagged.

This patch works for me to build 0.2.2:

It looks like kwim is a lazy dependency of kwm now. You can build without it (as per the above patch), but doing so disables a feature whereby kwm calls kwim automatically. So even if you install kwim as a separate package, you have to call it manually.

The other option would be to build kwim as a (Zig) dependency and ship it with this package. This gets a bit messy though since the projects have overlapping dependencies with different versions.

I suppose a third option would be to patch upstream so that kwim is always called automatically if it exists.

@aeneby I've created a package for Kwim at https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/kwim so it will be a dependency for this package however, that will be when I manage to bump it to version 0.2.2. I'm currently dealing with an error whenever I try to build(error in question:https://termbin.com/t4ev), I'm a bit busy at the moment so it might take some time.

aeneby commented on 2026-04-15 20:35 (UTC)

Any plans to package kwim as a dependency of this one?
