If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.


The optional performance patches are by default enabled.

A package for gnome-shell performance patches: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-shell-performance/

@ciupenhauer Glad to help. I only put those pieces together for !724 a few days ago. Actual credit (and sainthood perks) should go to https://aur.archlinux.org/account/glorious-yellow for finding a way to easily incorporate MR patches (see https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-shell-performance/#comment-726303). Getting truly amazing performance here too now. I also use a GS extension from https://github.com/adee/gnome-shell-aggressive-gc and I rarely see gnome-shell go over 4% CPU usage. Just putting this out here for who wants to give it a try.

@glitsj16 no way did that just work!! :O It's crazy the performance difference I get in shell on my laptop with powersave governor. You are a Saint mate

@ciupenhauer No clue why !724 hasn't been merged yet. But I did manage to find a way to include it without a manual rebase: (1) don't put !724 in the _merge_requests_to_use array; (2) add 'https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/mutter/merge_requests/724.diff' to the source array and updpkgsums; (3) put this at the bottom of the prepare() function: 'patch -Np1 -i ../724.diff'; (4) additionally you might want to add these at the top of the build() function (cfr. mutter PKGBUILD): CFLAGS="${CFLAGS/-O2/-O3} -fno-semantic-interposition -fno-strict-aliasing" LDFLAGS+=" -Wl,-Bsymbolic"

does anyone know if !724 will get merged before release? I can't manage to build this with it, manual rebase seems tricky. Is there any reason it wasn't merged yet?

@glitj16 thx! I just meant they'll also need to be updated in the package.

glitsj16 commented on 2020-02-03 17:16 (UTC)

@FuelFlo You can use these hashes:

  • for !983: pick_mr '!983' 9b7fe584 'merge'

  • for !1000: pick_mr '!1000' 62d608c2 'merge'

Additionally you can use '_commit=4959ae8bc4670cbd09c683d20fd07ded735e4dab # gnome-3-34'.

FuelFlo commented on 2020-02-03 17:08 (UTC)

Hey, the commit hashes of !983 and !1000 need to be fixed.

Thanks for the info glitsj16 and TheAimfam5. I will update this package and gnome-shell-performance over the weekend.
