Also, this thread (https://github.com/dynobo/normcap/issues/585) of January supposedly has a fix, that maybe could be added to this AUR, if proven to work?

On latest gnome 47, using Wayland, is giving me an issue.

When opening, a pop-up appears saying: "Normcap is missing the permissions for screen capture" "Grant it via the dialog that will appear after you click 'Ok'. "Then start Normcap again"

When clicking 'Ok', nothing happens.

@ubmarco: I just commented out the checkdepends() array. The tests were failing before, anyway.

Strange. I delete all caches with yay -Sc but still get this:

$ yay -S normcap
 -> No AUR package found for python-pytest-instafail
 -> could not find all required packages: python-pytest-instafail

Edit: This could be a yay issue. I downloaded the latest PKGBUILD and normcap.desktop and ran makepkg -si manually and it worked.

Edit 2: This helped yay -S normcap --mflags "--nocheck". Got it from https://github.com/Jguer/yay/issues/1375.

@ubmarco: The check() function is disabled so the checkdepends() array is ignored.

The dependency python-pytest-instafail is missing now.

you guys can try this: scrot -s -e 'tesseract $f stdout -l eng -c debug_file=/dev/null | xclip -sel clip'

Thanks! I already had qt6-wayland:

New optional dependencies for normcap
    qt6-wayland: Required in Wayland sessions [installed]

... but it seems the 0.4.0-2 version fixed it anyway. 🙏

@dynabo: As I already mentioned before, qt6-wayland is only required in a Wayland session. I'll add it as an optional dependency since it is not required for a Xorg session.

dynobo commented on 2023-03-05 12:09 (UTC)

It turned out that @gertvdijk was also missing qt6-wayland. (See https://github.com/dynobo/normcap/issues/393#issuecomment-1454784059)

@yochananmarqos, as this issue occurred multiple times already, would it make sense to add qt6-wayland as optional dependency?
