@WaiRo; if you're installing the client package only, OBS is not installed. OBS is only installed if you install the OBS plugin through pacman (which, if your OBS is not installed through pacman, you probably shouldn't be doing with any plugin).

What I'm guessing is that this isn't installation related but that you're not building in a clean chroot and thus are poluting your main system with the build process and the dependencies of anything you've been grabbing from the AUR.
If you don't want to build in a clean chroot to prevent all that, you can also edit the PKGBUILD and strip the components you don't want build and packaged so they do not get there in the first place. If you're using makepkg with -s, you can also have it clean them afterwards with the -r flag iirc (check the man/help before blindly using). Otherwise check the output of pacman -Qtdq afterwards and do some manual system cleaning.

Is there a way you could make the main package not depend on obs-studio, when I install looking-glass-git it pulls obs-studio, I use the flatpak version of obs and it overrides the .desktop file and opens the non-flatpak version.

@rogaro, did you read the 1st comment on the "similar issue" you've listed out? Just re-install the package so it will rebuild with properly linked libsframe version.

Ever since 31/07/2025, with binutils update 2.45, this program does not work and throws out the error:

"looking-glass-client: error while loading shared libraries: libsframe.so.1: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory"

as libsframe.so.1 was replaced with libsframe.so.2 .

Similar to this issue I found: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/79278

can you add

cmake -DENABLE_LIBDECOR=ON ../

so i can use it on gnome

Maybe the patch should also skip validity check since it is unfinished.

@OzzyHelix This is an upstream issue and already has a PR waiting to be merged.
