At moment I cant update this package because it crashes during build on "require wlroots 0.15" but choices we have currently are and both wont work

Hi There,

I understand that you guys don't ship the session file with river, however, wouldn't it be a 'good choice' to atleast ship river-git pkg with it, if not the river pkg itself?

If at some point you agree, then below changes should suffice:

add river.desktop file in the PKGBUILD directory


PKGBUILD modifications [ denoted by + ] -- 

source=(
    + "river.desktop"
)


sha256sums=(
            //recalculate or skip
)


package() {
    + install -Dm644 "$srcdir/river.desktop" "$pkgdir/usr/share/wayland-sessions/river.desktop"
}

Thanks!

/usr/lib/libLLVM-13.so is provided by llvm-libs which is a dependency of zig. Please check that llvm-libs is not listed in /etc/pacman.conf under IgnorePkg (which would prevent the package to be upgraded) and update the system with sudo pacman -Syu.

LLVM13 isn't a listed dependency, but river-git fails to build without it. Not sure if this a me problem, or an actual problem.

zig: error while loading shared libraries: libLLVM-13.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

The version of upstream wlroots is currently 0.15.0. Still, the version of wlroots-git is based on the last tag (0.14), so there is no way that I know of to prevent this during installation.

Installing wlroots from the community repository will solve the issue.

Won't compile due to this:

./deps/zig-wlroots/src/wlroots.zig:165:9: error: zig-wlroots requires wlroots version 0.14
        @compileError("zig-wlroots requires wlroots version 0.14");
        ^

I'm running wlroots-git ver 0.14.0.r347.g8274c85d-1
