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

It possible to modify the PKGBUILD to remove the dependency. Why don't you do that?

For most use cases Xwayland is essential for Steam and other software.

I hope he doesn't make it optional, it'd be like asking for French fries without salt. Only the outliers like it that way

Please add 'git' to makedepends. It's not in base-devel.

Disowned by me. I don't have enough experience yet to be maintaining packages. Sorry.

As written, this package should have xorg-xwayland as a dependency. The binary is built expecting the library to be present (-Dxwayland). If xorg-xwayland is not installed, the binary crashes at runtime because it is unable to create an Xwayland session.

That said, ideally the Xwayland dependency would be optional. I prefer to run without it, so I've been editing the PKGBUILD to remove -Dxwayland.

It finally does work and install now.
