The package will automatically apply a patch required for the vfs0097 reader if one is found in the system at build time, it will otherwise build for vfs0090. You can force a preferred behavior by exporting VFS0097=1 or =0.

If you have any issues, make sure talk about it https://gitter.im/Validity90/Lobby so it has a chance to get fixed.

GH issues have also been enabled by upstream, so make sure you check that as well: https://github.com/3v1n0/libfprint/

The driver should work as expected, but same as above for any issues.

@MartinX3 Have no spare time to do that, unfortunately. Only tried the latest version.

@svfedorov Thank you for your trying What about v1.94.6 and v1.94.7?

FYI tried to merge version 1.94.8 (https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/libfprint/libfprint/-/tags/v1.94.8) to my repo (https://github.com/Shade30/libfprint, currently on v1.94.5) without success. Too many changes upstream.

@LinuxAndCoffee I've added glib2-devel to the makedepends, that issue should be fixed now - I've been having some issues getting fprint working so this is untested. If I can't resolve my issues soonish I will disown the package.

@MartinX3 re your earlier request; I struggled to find an easy way to verify that package only changed fprint to a more recent version and made no other changes. git is hard sometimes :) If you do find a way to check this, please let me know and I will point this package towards the newer fprint fork.

@MartinX3 ah, yes, well you see that would have required me to actually read the content on the link I sent you and do so when my brain was functioning at some level...not enough coffee...yeah, that's the excuse I'm going with, not enough coffee:P

MartinX3 commented on 2024-06-29 14:18 (UTC)

@LinuxAndCoffee The link to the ticket is helpful and thank you. It's just funny that you gave us the solution to the new issue without using it by yourself. :P

LinuxAndCoffee commented on 2024-06-29 14:00 (UTC)

@MartinX3 I just installed the glib2-devel package and now the libfprint-vfs009x-git seems to install fine. The ticket I referenced in my post was not mine, just something I found while googling the issue. I did not submit an issue ticket because I was not sure where the best place to do that was. I apologize if this was not the correct way to seek help, and I am very appreciative of your assistance. And thank you to you and to @Fusate for what you do for the community.

MartinX3 commented on 2024-06-29 13:35 (UTC)

@LinuxAndCoffee You manually installed the glib2-devel package as mentioned in your issue ticket?

@Fusate please add the glib2-devel package as a build dependency.

LinuxAndCoffee commented on 2024-06-29 01:05 (UTC)

Just tried installing this (using the option for a clean build) and it fails with this error:

Dependency glib-2.0 found: YES 2.80.3 (cached) Program /usr/bin/glib-mkenums found: NO

libfprint/libfprint/meson.build:181:17: ERROR: Dependency 'glib-2.0' tool variable 'glib_mkenums' contains erroneous value: '/usr/bin/glib-mkenums'

This is a distributor issue -- please report it to your glib-2.0 provider.

A full log can be found at /home/revm/.cache/yay/libfprint-vfs009x-git/src/build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting... -> error making: libfprint-vfs009x-git-exit status 4

I found this same error mentioned here: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/glib2/-/issues/7 but not sure if it is directly related or not. Thanks in advance for any help and thank you for all your hard work maintaining this package (and any others you take care of).

MartinX3 commented on 2024-05-24 16:10 (UTC)

@Fusate Could you please include the changes of https://github.com/Shade30/arch_libfprint-vfs009x? It would be nice to have a newer fprint version.
