The used PR commit is 4 years old, unmaintained, and fails to apply as a patch.

So the package is more seriously broken, not just due to the missing dependency.

@Dingisoul please fix the dependencies as xorg-xwayland-hidpi-xprop-git doesn't exist anymore

Hi everyone,
I've stopped using this package and mostly xwayland software, so I've given up interest. I'm hoping they'll be support in upstream Wayland and compositors soon, or that we'll switch to a complete Wayland-compatible soon.
As a reminder, this package uses a set of experimental patches on xorg-xwayland, wlroots, and sway to enable HiDPI Xorg apps on Wayland. There might be a newer approach for this problem.
I'll orphan and stop rebasing the patches, feel free to pick them up from my fork and switch to yours.
Ciao!

Is there any way making it work with fractional scaling? All I want is to let xwayland run at my native resolution when I'm running wayland with scale 1.5

Along with https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/sway-hidpi-git#comment-882559, having the following in ~/.config/sway/config and running x programs with XCURSOR_SIZE=48 helped.

xwayland force
exec 'echo "Xft.dpi: 192" | xrdb -merge'

In case someone's in a similar shoe and wondering how they can have recent wlroots build with xwayland apps having HiDPI support (exactly what this package was doing until it broke): I managed to have the same functionality with another set of packages:

The above work with the simple "sway-git" package and don't seem to need a specific package (such as this package).

These also need an X11 property that can be set by adding to sway config:

exec_always 'xprop -root -f _XWAYLAND_GLOBAL_OUTPUT_SCALE 32c -set _XWAYLAND_GLOBAL_OUTPUT_SCALE 2'

@Rucikir PR #7079 has been merged now and it compiles fine again.

'makepkg -i' does not work, but 'pacman -U'. Is that expected / how come the latter works, but the former results in an error?

@Rucikir Thanks for the info

Rucikir commented on 2022-06-22 07:28 (UTC)

@C_Schmidpeter Pull request pending at https://github.com/swaywm/sway/pull/7079.

C_Schmidpeter commented on 2022-06-21 19:22 (UTC)

The package used to build fine for me. However, now it fails to compile with:

../sway/sway/ipc-json.c:982:67: error: ‘struct wlr_input_device’ has no member named ‘keyboard’ 982 | struct wlr_keyboard *keyboard = device->wlr_device->keyboard;
