By the way according to meson.build, webkit2gtk-4.1 would be found first, so why not use webkit2gtk-4.1 as deps?

It should be webkit2gtk instead of webkitgtk

@ion203: Or you could build with the -Dwebservices=false flag and then the deprecated webkit2gtk and libsoup2 dependencies are not required at all.

Thank you for the comment, I see that having webkit2gtk in depends instead of optional was an oversight and will fix this in the next update.

The Github repo lists webkit2gtk as an optional dependency, so why is it required here?

I noticed that the package does compile and run fine without this icon pack, but you get a bunch of placeholder icons in the UI where resources are missing. Since xapp also switched to this icon pack with 3.2.0, I will hold off updating this one until xapp-symbolic-icons gets promoted to the official repos.

the new version now use xapp-symbolic-icons as part of they dependencies.

not sure if its can run without it or compile, but look that dependency change is the only change.

The message mentioned is unrelated to this project: glib2-devel being a build dependency for pix has no relation to it also being an optional dependency for glib2.

Generally, PKGBUILDs run unprivileged and cannot modify the local system. However, makepkg can get deps for you via "-s" / "--syncdeps" - see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Makepkg#Usage

@ion203 thanks for the quick reply. Yes by installing glib2-devel package first then the build completed ok. It would be handy if the build script will just fetch the glib2-devel package for the user. (the output says glib2 optionally requires glib2-devel: development tools)

@noitemstoshow - I'm not able to reproduce this issue in a clean chroot. Make sure you have all required dependencies (including base-devel) and the build root is up to date.

"Make" dependencies - including glib2-devel here - are required for the build step.
