Hello, where can I get the new pkg keys? For 2.0.17 Package?

This updates to 2.17.0 well. Change the 'pkgver', replace the patch files with the ones in the link below, and update the checksums.

Will we get v2.16.1-1 pushed soon?

BinaryInk commented on 2025-04-08 04:10 (UTC)

System broke after update, saw this has been orphaned and the fix was simple enough.

I'll maintain for as long as possible/needed since I have a Surface device w/ Linux that I use daily.

2.15.0 is pushed, any issues let me know.

you don't need to downgrade or use libwacom instead of libwacom-surface. You can patch libwacom-2.15 in the same way 2.13 was patched. Change version and sha256sum inside PKGBUILD and build it with 'makepkg'. The package will build smoothly.

It looks like libinput-1.28 requires libwacom-2.15, and using libwacom-surface-2.13 breaks it. I've fixed my system reverting back to libinput-1.27 for the time being.

@donwlewis you are missing 'pkg-config', you need to install the base-devel before dealing with the AUR

qzed commented on 2023-12-13 20:49 (UTC)

@donwlewis: Libwacom requires libgudev as build dependency. This should be fixed in the latest release (2.9.0).

Getting the following error message with trying to makepkg:

Compiler for C supports arguments -Wmissing-declarations: YES 
Did not find pkg-config by name 'pkg-config'
Found pkg-config: NO
Found CMake: /usr/bin/cmake (3.28.0)
Run-time dependency gudev-1.0 found: NO (tried cmake)

libwacom-2.8.0/meson.build:54:14: ERROR: Dependency lookup for gudev-1.0 with method 'pkgconfig' failed: Pkg-config for machine host machine not found. Giving up.

libgudev is installed. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
