I wonder what the patch is for. The upstream wev package doesn't do it: https://gitlab.archlinux.org/archlinux/packaging/packages/wev

Hello, @KingofToasters. This package does not build anymore due to a small change in Makefile which invalidates wev-git.patch.

Please update wev-git.patch to the following (and update the PKGBUILD checksum, of course):

diff --git a/Makefile b/Makefile
index 0b1343f..4dc8237 100644

Thank you.

True, but it seems yay installs and works fine without base-devel on aarch64, which is pretty weird.

tfl5034 commented on 2023-06-24 17:43 (UTC)

pkgconf and patch are provided by base-devel which are implicit dependencies of AUR packages.

kunev commented on 2023-06-24 14:27 (UTC)

As noted by Libgxps this actually builds on aarch64, but seems to also need pkgconf and patch as dependencies.

conflicts=('wev') is missing.

For anyone experiencing issues running this under Gnome Shell (wl_registry@2: error 0: invalid version for global wl_seat (16): have 5, wanted 6), there's a commit in a fork by jwrdegoede on GitHub which fixes it: https://github.com/jwrdegoede/wev/commit/3ee158f71f591b60d233dfeb36a09ac4d7afbeb1

I'm not sure if sircmpwn is aware of that patch, or if there are reasons why it wouldn't be accepted into mainline - seems like the "correct" fix would be to patch Gnome to provide version 6 rather than building in DE-specific workarounds to wev.

Libgxps commented on 2020-12-01 10:00 (UTC)

Please add the aarch64 architecture or change it to any. It builds quite nicely. Thank you for your support.

@Depau I followed your changes and they worked. I think you can even get rid of the DESTDIR variable and just use the PREFIX dir.

Side-note, it might be worth marking this as orphaned.

depau commented on 2019-10-22 03:45 (UTC)

Hey, could you please fix the PREFIX issue?

Thank you.
