@bkuri niri msg layers works for me with the PKGBUILD as-is, your build must have been just really out of date. I will take a look at your changes, though.

Edit: I've taken a look, seems we'll be fine keeping the current PKGBUILD as-is

@FreeFull,thanks for you replay i will check my rustc

FreeFull commented on 2024-07-22 15:21 (UTC)

86kkd, seems like something is wrong with your rustc install. niri-git needs a working rustc to compile, so you'll have to fix that somehow.

I still can't build form source code since cloning fail while preparing build

Sorry about taking this long to add in the git-lfs fix, it completely slipped my mind. Things should be working now

@supreme's fix seems to have worked for me.
