Hello, I've build and run the package for aarch64. It works perfectly, I suppose the arch can be set to any

Hi,

During the build got error because unusual versioning came from git repo, so I added more bulletproof version extraction to pkgver() ->

I get the following while building in a chroot:

rofi/meson.build:108:2: ERROR: Dependency "wayland-client" not found, tried pkgconfig

Adding wayland to makedepends fixed it.

orestisf commented on 2025-06-15 06:53 (UTC)

Thanks @cysp74, from the meson file it seems that wayland support during build is optional and can be disabled by a flag. However, the approach of adding it as a makedepend seems simpler so I followed that.

Hi,

wayland-protocols is needed for building the package from now on.

yusufaktepe commented on 2025-01-19 21:31 (UTC)

xcb-imdkit should be added as a dependency.

Fails to build in a clean chroot without xcb-util-keysyms.

Done, thanks

BifbofII commented on 2023-01-13 09:38 (UTC)

It seems like a dependency on xcb-util-cursor is missing. Building in a clean root without that I get the following error:

rofi/meson.build:68:0: ERROR: Dependency "xcb-cursor" not found, tried pkgconfig
