If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.

Note that a debug option is disabled in this package.

To enable the check() process, set an env: _enable_check=y

To disable building the docs package, set an env: _disable_docs=y

If the building process is getting failed on check() like

gnome-shell/src/st/meson.build:195:2: ERROR: Dependency "libmutter-test-11" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake

then you might want to do one of these:

0) Unset an env: _enable_check=y

1) Rebuild mutter-performance package with _enable_check=y env.

And try again.

The optional performance patches are by default enabled.

Was the version number supposed to be bumped to 42.1?

Wow, after I installed the package and rebooted, I went to the bathroom. Now that I'm back, you've already updated it with the fix! Thanks so much for your excellent work

@saghm yes it got merged but I forgot to remove it. I will fix it soon.

When trying to install this, I got git conflicts with 2048; disabling it and running makepkg alone seems to have worked. From checking the url (https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-shell/-/merge_requests/2048), it seems like it has been merged, but I'm not sure how to tell if it's been released yet (or if that matters for this package).

This package, together with mutter-performance, drastically improved the GNOME performance for me. No more stuttering animations. Thank you!
