@sudopluto I saw your email in aur-general.

I think if maintainer is acting hostile, it worth issuing orphan request, and describing the situation. Also, maintaining such much packages really seems like squatting, and you do want to keep package names correct, avoiding pollution of namespace just because the normal package name is squatted.
I really feel your pain, because I myself had to deal with such "maintainers" in the past (specifically, with davinci-resolve packages).

Note, however, that I did not deeply learned the current situation with this package. So be sure to present facts in your orphan request if you decide to submit it.

ok figured it out, cachyos ships with -O3 enabled in makepkg.conf, but MIR currently only supports -O2. but in my investigation, I found a number of ways to improve the pkgbuild:

  • use ninja as build system rather than makefiles
  • add bash and systemd-libs as explicit depends
  • renable LTO
  • force -O2 to be used for build
  • make compiler warnings not fatal to build
  • other MIR build variables, like the disabling of some tests that they don't support outside of Ubuntu

I am planning on packaging miracle-wm: https://github.com/miracle-wm-org/miracle-wm.

Since mir is a dependency, do you think you can update mir to https://github.com/canonical/mir/releases/tag/v2.17.0?

I can't think of a clean way to separate out the libs / devel bits, so I don't think it makes much sense for me to make a new aur package which pretty much does the same thing.

If you are no longer interested in maintaining the package, please let me know and I will pick it up. Thanks! :D

https://github.com/MirServer/mir/releases/tag/v2.14.1 exists but doesn't fix failing to build from source; to "fix" that I added -DMIR_FATAL_COMPILE_WARNINGS=OFF, reported it also upstream at https://github.com/MirServer/mir/issues/2987
