@cartok Unfortunately, I can't confirm your observations. Based on your comment, I have rebuilt the package in a clean chroot, as described in the wiki. I did not encounter any errors during this process. Hence, the dependencies seem to be alright IMHO.

Edit: Maybe the issue is not with this package but with the libwireplumber-4.0-compat package, as this has the mentioned Python dependencies. However, I also rebuilt this one in a clean chroot and it also works. Are you using an Arch derivate?

Doesn't install right now. Seems to miss python dependencies, even though some of those mentioned are getting installed and asked to be removed at the end.

@moabeat Apologies, you are correct. Not sure why it didn't show up for me before - maybe was just not cached yet.

@etylermoss: The package already has a com.saivert.pwvucontrol.desktop file in /usr/share/applications/. This is the one that comes with the original distribution from upstream. If you would like to propose changes to this file, I would suggest to do that on the pwvucontrol Github repository instead. I don't see a reason why this should be overridden by this package.

@moabeat: Thanks a lot! :)

@hardfalcon Thank you very much for the suggestions. I have incorporated them in the updated package version. I didn't know about updpkgsums yet, that's indeed very handy.

Hi, could you please add the parameter --no-rebuild to the meson install call?

When trying to build this package with /usr/bin/archbuild from devtools, I reproducibly run into the same problem as described here:

https://gitlab.gnome.org/World/fractal/-/issues/1327

Adding --no-rebuild parameter solves this.

Also, there appears to be a minor typo in the b2sums array (the actual checksum was pasted behind "" instead of between them). I can recommend the updpkgsums command from pacman-contrib, which makes updating checksums a lot easier and gives the checksums arrays a consistent indention/formatting.

@jujudusud The application is based on glib and gtk4, so it resembles the dependencies of a GNOME application. This was the reason I put this into the description. Like any other actual GNOME application (e.g. gnome-text-editor), it can be used in any environment, as long as the user accepts to have these dependencies installed.
