It does seem like this package puts udev rules already in /usr/lib/udev/rules.d/60-sunshine.rules, so you most likely don't have to add your own rules in /etc/udev/rules.d to get input working again.
I also ran into permissions issues today and all I had to do was add myself to the input group to get things working again.
So let me see if I get this correctly:
According to the previous logic, if the if [[ "${_use_cuda::1}" == "t" ]] block read as true (which would mean either that CUDA has been detected as installed on the system or that the user has manually set _use_cuda to true) then CUDA would be added both to the makedepends array and to the optdepends array, so the build would pull it in as a make dependency. This would work perfectly fine even on an AMD system, even if CUDA would obviously be a no go during runtime.
According to the new logic in the latest PKGBUILD, if the if [[ "${_use_cuda::1}" == "t" ]] block reads as true then CUDA is now only added to the optdepends array but not to the makedepends array. This means that if I set _use_cuda to true, the build will fail because CUDA is no longer getting pulled as a make dependency but SUNSHINE_ENABLE_CUDA and CUDA_FAIL_ON_MISSING are still set to ON - in other words, building with CUDA will only work if and only if I have CUDA preinstalled on my system.
Why was this change implemented in such a way that it breaks the previously working procedure?
I'm asking out of curiosity; I'm on an AMD system so this doesn't affect me in the slightest.
If you see:
Unable to create virtual touch screen: Permission denied
Unable to create virtual pen tablet: Permission denied
when starting Sunshine, it means your user lacks uinput permissions.
Fix:
sudo modprobe uinput
echo 'KERNEL=="uinput", MODE="0660", GROUP="input"' | sudo tee /etc/udev/rules.d/99-uinput.rules
sudo usermod -aG input $USER
Log out and back in. The warnings will be gone on next start.
CUDA is now set as an optional dependency - issue on AMD systems fixed.
This is now broken on AMD systems since LizardByte took over as maintainer (as in rev 4 onwards), it's requiring cuda as a build dependency, which obviously AMD systems will not have.
@urbenlegend Thanks for the report. There is a workaround fix in process https://github.com/LizardByte/pacman-repo/pull/52 and https://github.com/LizardByte/Sunshine/pull/4254
