Please note that a debug option is disabled in this package.

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

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

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

83/114 mutter:core+mutter/backends/native / native-unit TIMEOUT 180.01s killed by signal 15 SIGTERM

then you might want to do one of these:

0) Unset an env: _enable_check=y

1) Kill your pipewire session manager; killall $(pacman -Qq pipewire-session-manager).

2) Reboot the machine.

3) Pass a variable --nocheck to makepkg (which can be passed along with --mflags first if you are using paru) to temporarily disable a check() process.

4) Add a line options=(!check) to the package's PKGBUILD file to disable a check() process.

And try again.

@NettoHikari or anyone unable to compile with the following error:

lto1: internal compiler error: bytecode stream: expected tag identifier_node instead of LTO_UNKNOWN

You need to rebuild sysprof and then try again.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.

The optional performance patches are by default enabled.

A package for gnome-shell performance patches: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gnome-shell-performance/

Daniel van Vugt is currently maintaining a more up-to-date branch backported to be compatible with GNOME 43, please consider that git and branch as package source.

or e.g. using it as source for cherry-picks.

@ewout it's not merged in gnome-43. And mr1441 hasn't updated anything yet except merging main.

merge request 2702 has been merged and can be dropped

@nowy I do bump it up when it's only required.

The latest commit only impacts building process, which isn't necessary to be rebuilt for people who already built it before.

And I already bumped up pkgrel with the commit that fixes dependency issues.

please update pkgrel value.

@RealOrRandom Fixed it by adding it to makedepends temporarily.

EDIT: Will ultimately disable tests in meson setup so it won't require xvfb eventually.

EDIT: Disabled tests option in the project's meson setup if _enable_check is not set.

This should have a build dependency on extra/xorg-server-xvfb. The build fails without it:

 Program xvfb-run found: NO

mutter-performance/meson.build:381:2: ERROR: Program 'xvfb-run' not found or not executable

@glorious-yellow We have no difference with 43.1. Check the commit and the patch I added.

gnome 43 has been moved out of testing.
