Arch Linux User Repository

Seems like wayland-wall repository was removed from github.

Needs 'wayland' in the makedepends array.

This package is installing files under “/usr/local”. With Meson you need to use “--prefix=/usr” instead of “-Dprefix=/usr”:

The project seems to have switched to the meson build system. The following patch fixes this package for me:
