Pattern matching should be working now that the patch has been merged.

PR #6892

Edit: This issue is resolved by by PR #6892

Pattern matching is broken since pcre was replaced with pcre2, see: https://github.com/swaywm/sway/issues/6886

If you use any scripts that use pattern matching, e.g. swaymsg [title="test"] it will not work. To fix it temporarily, stay on the 0467693 commit or patch in the .diff fix someone made in the above link.

As per https://github.com/swaywm/sway/commit/f614f35e7354980bf4f0a66ca99be9b5f3a7ac90, the pcre dependency should now be replaced with with pcre2.

After this message:

==> Validating source files with sha512sums...
    sway ... Skipped
    50-systemd-user.conf ... Passed

Nothing happens, just freeze.

@Rucikir Ok I figured out what was wrong, as I started to suspect there was something wrong in my env, and that turned out to be the case: I had in the past compiled wlroots directly from the git repo, and that left all sorts of breadcrumbs around. After cleaning up I'm finally able to build sway-git correctly.

Thanks for your help, and sorry for the confusion.

@Rucikir Yes I see now that is not an indication of an issue, here's the full build log:

error: failed to build 'sway-git-r6607.28cadf55-1': 
error: packages failed to build: sway-git-r6607.28cadf55-1

wlroots-git seems to be installed, version as follows:

❯ pacman -Q wlroots
wlroots-git 0.14.0.r391.g585a908a-1

Now that I look at it, why's the installer reporting:

Run-time dependency wlroots found: YES 0.15.0

While wlroots-git sits at 0.14.0? Either something's wrong on my side, or I fail to understand how this works, which is totally possible :)

One last thing to note, I've also deleted the cloned repos from the cache, just to be sure to start from a clean state after the recent move to gitlab...

@togusa The error you're reporting is normal, since wlroots is found in the system via the wlroots-git package, and neither as a subproject nor a wlroots.wrap. If sway is failing to build, there must be another error you can report. Can you also confirm that you've installed wlroots-git first?

I'm trying to install both wlroots-git and sway-git and it's failing building sway:

  Subprojects
    wlroots        : NO Neither a subproject directory nor a wlroots.wrap file was found.

Wlroots seems to build fine though.

since WLR_RENDERER=vulkan merged.

but still fail WLR_RENDERER=vulkan [wlr] [render/vulkan/vulkan.c:206] Could not create instance: ERROR_LAYER_NOT_PRESENT [wlr] [render/vulkan/renderer.c:15251] creating vulkan instance for renderer failed [wlr] [backend/drm/renderer.c:351] Failed to create renderer [wlr] [backend/backend.c:2301] Failed to create DRM backend

@deatheye did you get this error?
