chrisco23: You can see if the Flatpak is a good alternative for you. It doesn't have the same issues packaging-wise as this AUR package, as we are constrained by what's available on Arch, while the Flatpak can easily bundle its dependencies. You are looking for org.zrythm.Zrythm from Flathub

I know you guys are working on this and I'm super grateful. After 20 years of kinda hoping for a linux DAW that works for me, I think it's this one. But for a few months now, the package situation has kinda been burnt into my retinas. "Missing AUR Debug Packages: zrythm-debug -> Orphaned AUR Packages: lsp-dsp-lib -> Flagged Out Of Date AUR Packages: lsp-dsp-lib qt5-styleplugins stockfish zrythm"

Any recommendations from our community here?

Newer zrythm versions require carla 2.6.0, which hasn't been released yet.

I have updated the package to 3.4.1. This makes it incompatible with your system installation of libadwaita, which is why this isn't suitable for everyone. Right now I don't have a better solution, because it looks like statically linking libadwaita isn't really possible currently. If you want to keep using zrythm on environments, where you can't remove the libadwaita package, I recommend using the Flatpak for now.

As libadwaita 1.2 is on the horizon, this packaging situation will get better soon.

BrainDamage commented on 2022-09-10 14:10 (UTC)

the current packaged version fails to build in a clean chroot due to missing deps:

Run-time dependency lilv-0 found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)
Looking for a fallback subproject for the dependency lilv-0
Building fallback subproject with default_library=shared

meson.build:996:0: ERROR: Neither a subproject directory nor a lilv.wrap file was found.

I have not managed to build the latest version of zrythm, without causing conflicts with the system installation of gtk4, libadwaita and gtksourceview5.

I also can't get meson to link gtk4 statically.

If anyone wants to hack on this, this is my patch for the current PKGBUILD:

I have reverted the last bump for now, until libadwaita 1.2 is available in the Arch repos. I think I shouldn't force people to use libadwaita-git

Ralf_Mardorf commented on 2022-05-13 00:00 (UTC)

It's probably possible to build the latest commit, without breaking an important package. I haven't done this for my install, but actually I don't care for gnome-calculator. Consider to bump the pkgver and to replace the commit by the latest from main, if no important package should be affected for your install.

build configuration fails when looking for libadwaita >= 1.2. the arch repos currently ship libadwaita 1.1

@Scrumplex thanks, I have installed boost package and now it's building fine
