[SOLVED]What happened to the AUR page for xorg-xwayland explicit-sync?

I'm still a bit new to arch, so I hope that I'm posting this to the correct page on the forums...

Recently I installed the explicit sync patch from the AUR for xwayland:

https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg … t-sync-git

and I just checked today that the page got removed. Does this mean that it finally got merged into the proprietary nvidia drivers?
I read on some forums that the update wasn't supposed to happen until may 15th, so I'm a bit confused.

The support needs to be active in xorg-xwayland before drivers can use it. The development version does include that support now, so there's no need for a separate pacakge anymore.

See https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/li … NU3PGNNM2/

If you want to use xorg-xwayland with the explicit sync support before it gets offically released, use https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/xorg-xwayland-git
(same maintainer as xorg-xwayland explicit-sync )

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?

Mark resolved threads by editing your initial posts subject - so others will know that there's no task left, but maybe a solution to find.
Thanks.
