Can you please change the (provide) names in 'optdepends' back to the common (provide) names (swaybg, swayidle and swaylock), unless there is a reason to restrict those packages to the *-git packages?

Sure, thanks for the review. I have removed ${_pkgname}

In this case, I feel that ${_pkgname} is not absolutely necessary and can be replaced with ${pkgname%-git} https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Arch_package_guidelines#Package_etiquette

Thank you for noting the regression that appeared in my last commit. I have:

  • Addressed the naming anomaly in both conflicts and provides.

  • Removed tests, considering that sway does not have any.

  • Removed the debug build. I believe it should be left to the user's discretion.

The name in the provides and conflicts arrays should be "${pkgname%-git}". The name in the source array should be $pkgname to "make it unique enough" in case $srdir is the same for all package builds.

The package also builds without options=(debug).

sway-git should provide "sway" not "sway-git".

Upgrading sway-git fails because of this for me:

error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: installing sway-git (r7177.4a221057-2) breaks dependency 'sway' required by sway-systemd :: installing sway-git (r7177.4a221057-2) breaks dependency 'sway' required by swaynagmode

Hello everyone! I've been a long-time sway user, and I'm thrilled to step up and assume the maintainer's role for this package. I have entirely removed sway-contrib, as it is no longer related to the official sway repository. However, I'm open to adding it again if it comes back under the sway team's guidance and supervision. Additionally, I've implemented several fixes to the package. Please feel free to reach out if you have any requests or suggestions.

@Rucikir Understood. Thanks for all the maintenance you have done.

Yep, I've stopped using this packet. Best wishes to the next maintainer. Some people want their eggs in the morning before they've woken up, others bake their own when the cook is gone (whatever that means).
