There's a new release now!

Upstream has stopped making releases. No release tar balls are being created. To make matters worse the tags for versions 5.2.2, 5.2.3 were deleted for unspecified reasons. Version will remain at 5.2.1 until I can figure out what is happening with upstream.

Upstream Issue: https://gitlab.com/asus-linux/supergfxctl/-/issues/137

I'll take a look at this.

There are some untagged releases for 5.2.2 and 5.2.3 available on the gitlab, not sure if there's a reason for it or not

I can't reproduce. Without more information being provided I can't verify the issue. Please open a ticket at the git repo listed in the pinned comment and provide as much detail about the issue as possible.

I think I tried rebuilding the package as well. Did not help. For the time being I will remain on 6.6 as well.

Did you force rebuild the package against the new kernel? What errors are being generated? I am still on 6.6 yet so I have not checked.

Since kernel 6.7.x supergfxctl is causing crashes on OS shutdown.

Did anyone experience this? HW is ASUS ROG Zephyrus G14 (GA402RK). I downgraded the kernel, it works normally again.

Regarding the base-devel issue raised by DuKol. So from my understanding PKGBUILDS should never include base-devel in the #makedepends per this section of the wiki.

https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/PKGBUILD#makedepends
Note: The package base-devel is assumed to be already installed when building with makepkg. Dependencies of this package should not be included in makedepends array.

It is assumed to be installed. This is why I have not included it in the PKGBUILD. If you are building inside a clean chroot, as I would recommend, please make sure you build base-devel into that chroot to meet the expectations.

Hello all, I'm trying to build the package hoping it could help me to resolve nonworking keyboard on Asus ExpertBook laptop, but I get the following error:

error: failed to run custom build command for `libudev-sys v0.1.4`

Is there any way out? And is it worth trying to make the internal keyboard work?

[SOLVED] even if not in dependencies, base-devel is required.
