I also had the error @holzhaus is reporting. and also a rustup update solves it.

this fails to build for me:

error[E0658]: `#[doc(alias)]` is experimental

    = note: see issue #50146 <https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/50146> for more information

Edit: removing export RUSTUP_TOOLCHAIN=stable from PKGBUILD fixes it

Edit: I had this error because of outdated rust toolchain, doing rustup update solved it

@VeryGeneric: I just built it with neither a warning nor an error.

Anyone else getting a glib build error with this pkgbuild?

I'm able to build manually following the upstream README, though.

@yochananmarqos you are right, that did the trick. Probably left overs from the r27.a653635 thing...

@lcoo: I can't reproduce it. Remove the shell-shortcuts & src folder and try again.

Getting this error when installing:

==> Starting pkgver()...
fatal: ambiguous argument 'HEAD': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
fatal: Needed a single revision

@OnyxAzryn @core_contingency: I'm not quite sure what upstream did to cause that. Ugh, time for an epoch, I suppose.

Same thing is happening for me. printf "r%s.%s" "$(git rev-list --count HEAD)" "$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)" is giving r27.a653635 which is used for the package version. This means that yay thinks that this package needs to be upgraded to r37.9280535-2 every time I run it, which is slightly inconvenient.

I think the version might be incorrect. I keep coming up with the version being r27.a653635.

@tho: Build in a clean chroot instead of using Yay. Then you won't have to change your environment variables.

@yochananmarqos

aaah now i understand what's wrong. i'm actually a rust user, and i also use a CARGO_TARGET_DIR env variable. i'll try to figure out how to workaround this

thank you

@tho: Your error says it's not finding the binary in the $(BINARY_SRC) (target/release/) folder. Make sure you're using rust and not rustup or another package.

@yochananmarqos

hm this is weird. it gives me the same error. i tried to remove -git from pkgname to no avail

@tho: Oh, sorry. My PKGBUILD isn't using the -git suffix, forgot about that.

I was behind a commit, so I just rebuilt it now and had no issues.

Try this PKGBUILD.

@yochananmarqos

nope. still doesn't work. same error

but i left the "_dir"s as they were, because "pkgname#pop-" gave me another error

/home/tho/.cache/yay/pop-shell-shortcuts-git/PKGBUILD: line 30: cd: /home/tho/.cache/yay/pop-shell-shortcuts-git/src/shell-shortcuts-git: No such file or directory

@tho: Replace the build() and package() functions with the following:

build() {
    cd "$srcdir/${pkgname#pop-}"
    make prefix=/usr
}

package() {
    cd "$srcdir/${pkgname#pop-}"
    make prefix=/usr DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install
}

This currently installs to /usr/local/bin/. It should be installed to /usr/bin/ using make prefix=/usr.

@user2342342 that’s odd, it works for me, could you post up what worked on your end as well for the benefit of others? Or Point out how to correct my comment?

@Edgeworth you forgot a semicolon ya dumb bitch

EDIT: this also doesn't work so you're a double dumb bitch

@iSpicyCurry, in order for the shortcuts to be applied it is necessary to run the install.sh script, so try something like this:

cd $(mktemp -d)
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/pop-shell-shortcuts-git.git
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/gnome-shell-extension-pop-shell-git.git
cd pop-shell-shortcuts-git; makepkg -si; cd ..

cd gnome-shell-extension-pop-shell-git/; makepkg -si

cd src/shell/
sh rebuild.sh

I also had to change s-m to toggle maximize state rather than maximize window

Sorry but I'm only packaging this and don't know why your shortcuts are not applying :( You could file an Issue upstream if you believe this to be a bug.

Not sure why but not all of the pop shell shortcuts are applying. For example, super + M is not maximizing a window but instead opening the calendar. Any idea how to fix this so it is applied correctly?

Works great, thanks.

Thanks for the notice, I have removed the glib dependency since the packages does build without it.

Have a look at this link. It doesn't need glib or glib2. Looks like rust and gtk3 is sufficient for Arch Linux.

https://www.linuxuprising.com/2020/05/how-to-install-pop-shell-tiling.html

I think 'glib' in depends should be changed to 'glib2'. glib pacakge is not found.

I believe that "glib" is not the correct dependency as it refers to GTK1 (or maybe GTK2?).
