@HunabKu Thank you, I updated the PKGBUILD with your fix!

This package provides the base theme (without tweaks) as configured for the upstream tagged releases.

@t3pfaffe I couldn't fix it with your prepare(), I had to remove the "--libadwaita" flag

@HunabKu Can you retry to install it now?

HunabKu commented on 2025-05-07 09:36 (UTC)

The themes no longer appears on /usr/share/themes/. but it appears with no -git version (whitesur-gtk-theme)

I've been running into issues updating this pkg, the ./install.sh command complains about --libadwaita being run as root and seemingly soft failing the installation as a result. I had to change the PKGBUILD around to avoid using sudo by adding a prepare() function and stripping any sudo calls from within the ./install.sh script before running it. It appears to have worked, although it's a very hacky solution, so your mileage may vary.

This seems to be a new issue with the installation script, as several issue threads on the matter have popped up over the past day within the upstream repo. I have attached the patch for my changes below, in-case anyone runs into the same problem:

Hi, i have this error on the last commit :

ERROR: Unrecognized installation option '--icon'.

ERROR: Unrecognized installation option 'arch'.

Just comment "--icon arch" not works, need to remove it and make on one line :

./install.sh --alt all --theme all --libadwaita --dest "$pkgdir/usr/share/themes"

This package installs files to /usr/share/docs. The path should be usr/share/doc (no trailing s). Can confirm path by running pacman -Fl | grep 'usr/share/doc/'

@elamperti Seems pamac has problems with the spinner animation the installer script uses. But that's only a guess because i didn't looked further in it. I noticed it works with yay and that was fine for me.

elamperti commented on 2023-12-29 14:01 (UTC)

@Sharky009 You are right indeed! Tried an update directly from yay and it works. Any clue on why this error happens? This should work regardless of client preferences...
