IMPORTANT

Please do not flag this package as out-of-date if the only change you need is to update to a newer version. It is not needed because it always fetches the sources using Git and uses the most recent version without needing to modify the PKGBUILD — just rebuild the package.

Also, please try building in a clean chroot before assuming that the PKGBUILD is broken.

The PKGBUILD needs to be updated after the recent changes to the Meson build options. I've used these:

    meson build \
            --prefix /usr \
            --buildtype debug \
            -Dlibcap=enabled \
            -Dlogind=enabled \
            -Dlogind-provider=systemd \
            -Dxwayland=enabled \
            -Dx11-backend=enabled \
            -Dxcb-errors=enabled \
            -Drootston=true \
            -Dexamples=false

I tried setting rootston to false, but the install step expects it to be built. Perhaps rootston should be moved to its own package?

I think you should include pixman as a dependency.

@thx1138: Thanks for the suggestion, I have pushed a new version which installs rootston and its example configuration file.

"rootston", the test compositor, is being built, but it is not being installed. Maybe this has to be added "manually" to the package() function, since ninja install has failed to do this properly.

@emersion: Done! I have added options “!strip” & “debug”, and command line flag “--buildtype debug” to Meson. This should be enough, I believe. Let me know if there's anything else I can help out with in this regard.

Can you please add debug options to this package? This is an unreleased package, and we're tired of getting bug reports without readable stack traces.

@bobsaintcool: I have pushed an update with “git” and “wayland-protocol” added as build-dependencies. The latter only contains XML protocol description files used to generate C code when building other packages, and it's not at all needed at runtime. Thanks for the heads up!

bobsaintcool commented on 2018-05-08 13:04 (UTC)

I'm running into difficulties when building wlroots with this package. Can you consider adding git (build) and wayland-protocols (run) to package dependencies?
