wayfire-desktop-git doesn't compile because of meson

I'm trying to install wayfire-desktop-git from the aur but it doesn't compile.


plugins/ipc/meson.build:7:2: ERROR: Automatic wrap-based subproject downloading is disabled

A full log can be found at /home/bt/.cache/yay/wayfire-git/src/wayfire/build/meson-logs/meson-log.txt
==> ERREUR : Une erreur s’est produite dans build().
    Abandon…
-> error making: wayfire-git

Is it possible to install wayfire ?

Regards,

Re: wayfire-desktop-git doesn't compile because of meson

First I need to ask whether you're using an aur helper (since it would be a pita to guide you through the build process - at least for me).
Second: yes.
Having said that, I would recommend picking 'wayfire' 's stable version (no subprojects needed here) with the only downside that you would have to stall 'wlroots' updates until wayfire gets updated (it's basically a one-man-project - but a great one).

Another recommendation from my side would be not to use 'wayfire-desktop-git' at all (only as reference) in order to get a wayfire desktop-like environment, but to build it up the modular (arch) way - but that's just me...

EDIT: If you're thinking *screw dogknowsshit*, you could try and use the workaround from the wayfire-git package site:
https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/wayfire-git

Thanks for the info.  I will read more about the modular way to build wayfire.  I like very much this project (wayfire) and I have tried it with Garuda.  But I would like to build it myself and stay with Arch native.

It's less complicated than it sounds. Basically you will only have to build 'wayfire' and its configuration 'wf-config' in order to get a running session, but for special tasks such as desktop notifications, statusbar, clipboard, you name it, you will have to install extra packages, and 'wayfire-desktop-git' contains a preselected list of extra packages as dependencies which I would only use as reference. Take 'wofi' for example , which is a "sane" choice for an app launcher, but maybe you'd prefer 'bemenu', or 'fuzzel', or no GUI at all (and only use keybindings)...

Re: wayfire-desktop-git doesn't compile because of meson

Thank you all for your answers. 

I'm relatively new to Arch so I will have to read about the arch packaging process.  I need more understanding about it first.
I'm starting to read https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Makepkg
