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

Rotech commented on 2026-01-04 04:58 (UTC)

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.

yay -Q libwacom-surface

libwacom-surface 2.15.0-1

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
