Description Esad Katmer 2024-05-28 04:40:14 UTC

Meson cannot find wlroots.pc in PKG_CONFIG_PATH

meson-log.txt:

  Package 'wlroots' not found
  ...
  Run-time dependency wlroots found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)

I fixed this by symlinking.

   ln -sf /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/wlroots-0.18.pc /usr/lib64/pkgconfig/wlroots.pc


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. emerge -1q '=gui-libs/wlroots-9999'
2. emerge -1q '=gui-wm/sway-9999'
Actual Results:  
Configuration fails.

Expected Results:  
Build succeded

Yes, consumers will have to adapt. Not much we can really do about this - it's breakage in wlroots-9999 (but for the best).

You'll need to report it upstream to sway but I think they're already aware given who maintains it.

https://github.com/swaywm/sway/pull/8187 indeed.
