Before install Waydroid, make sure that your kernel supports binder and ashmem module (currently only linux-zen does)

Keep in mind that Waydroid only works with Wayland compositors. It also does not work yet with proprietary NVIDIA driver.

After install waydroid and waydroid-image, run this command to initialize the container:

# waydroid init

Then the container can be started via waydroid-container.service. The official project group/channel can be found on:

Could you add an install file? Something like this, perhaps:

post_install() {
  echo "Download and extract Waydroid system & vendor images:"
  echo "sudo waydroid init"
  echo ""
  echo "Start the container service:"
  echo "systemctl start waydroid-container"
}

pre_upgrade() {
   waydroid session stop
   systemctl stop waydroid-container
}

post_upgrade() {
  systemctl daemon-reload
  systemctl start waydroid-container
}

pre_remove() {
  pre_upgrade
}

post_remove() {
  echo "Optionally remove Waydroid data & images:"
  echo "sudo rm -rf /var/lib/waydroid /home/.waydroid ~/waydroid"
}

python-gobject is required for IUserMonitor.py

It seems the clipboard service requires PyClip, see cliboard_manager.py.

seems git commit hash in the current PKGBUILD is lost on GitHub, please update it to another hash. Also, there was ongoing issue with zen kernel and some modules - https://github.com/waydroid/waydroid/issues/13
