As of the initial upstream commit 8fa58b1000240b6bf9ff601d74f1ed8d8ebc6bde and completed by the following commit 5ecda401667e946540140b40f1cc809c2b1b1e57, upstream now requires libmm-glib.

Cleared the package cache and rebuilt and it is now working. Thanks @xiota

I am getting the following error when trying to build with hyprland

./waybar/src/bar.cpp: In constructor ‘waybar::Bar::Bar(waybar::waybar_output*, const Json::Value&)’:
../waybar/src/bar.cpp:232:65: error: cannot convert ‘Json::String’ {aka ‘std::__cxx11::basic_string<char>’} to ‘const char*’

      |                                       ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
      |                                                                 |

Please let me know what other information would be relevant and I can include it. Thanks!

@ninetailedtori Fails to build with libcxx=true when I tried adding libc++ to depends, exporting CC/CXX, and adding clang to makedeps.

Could we add _use_libcxx to the options as well? It would help for those of us who use clang's libc++ instead of the gnu stdlibc++:

@alekgr yes i was able to build after updating hyprland-git, just reboot after updating hyprland-git then rebuild waybar-git.
