Certainly, xiota! If it occurs, I'll take care of it. Feel free to provide feedback on the other sway packages I oversee.

Thanks for updating. Just so you're aware, you may have to add versioned depends if any packages use versioned depends in the future.

For reference: provides=("${pkgname%-git}=${pkgver%%.r*}")

Having version numbers that are comparable makes the packages easier to compare. Is r317 newer or older than 1.7.3. If the git package is being used to work around bugs, should the user try the stable version or rebuild the git package? It's also necessary to correctly version provides. 

provides=("${pkgname%-git}=${pkgver%%.r*}")

pkgver() {
  cd "$pkgname"
  git describe --long --tags | sed 's/^v//;s/\([^-]*-g\)/r\1/;s/-/./g'
}

Hello xiota, sure but can you explain why it's important to having similar pkgver between swaylock and swaylock-git ? Something like the first one would suit it well ? https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/VCS_package_guidelines#Git

Let me know and I'll change it

Please update pkgver() to use version format #.r#.g# so that they are comparable with extra/swaylock releases.

Also, as noted previously, please remove the --strip from the meson invocation.

I have adopted the package and applied the patch I've send previously.

Hi,

Swaylock seems to have changed their tagging, by prefixing with v (v1.7.x instead of 1.7). This seems to cause weirdness in yay for instance where it continuously want to downgrade the package:

1  aur/swaylock-git  v1.7.2.r2.gac3b49b-1 -> 1.4.r15.gdee0021-1

This patch should fix the issue:

What's the deal with passing --strip to meson? Some people like to have working debug packages, you know... I could find no evidence of makepkg being "unable to strip the binary" (the commit introducing this issue offers absolutely no explanation either...), so please fix this.
