Missing dependency pkg-config.

Did not find pkg-config by name 'pkg-config'
Found Pkg-config: NO

@tag_enk: This depends on networkmanager which depends on wpa_supplicant. The program is designed for GNOME (hence the name) which uses networkmanager by default.

it requires wpa_supplicant...which I don't use cause I use iwd....right? are all you all using wpa_supplicant still?

requires networkmanager, optionally dnsmasq

Thank you, @yochananmarqos!

Hi @yochananmarqos and thanks for maintaining the package. I see why you don't want to have dnsmasq as a (mandatory) dependency. I confirm that dnsmasq is a make dependency of libnm. This is why I would like to suggest adding dnsmasq as an optional dependency since some Miracast clients (e.g. my Samsung TV) do not work without dnsmasq. Also, dnsmasq is explicitly listed as a dependency in the documentation of gnome-network-displays. I'm sure this will help save people time.

TL;DR: Would be great if you could add optdepends=('dnsmasq: necessary for certain clients')

Yes that worked. Thanks a lot!

@h4ckerle: That appears to be a Pipewire plugin.

gst-inspect-1.0 pipewiresrc

I've added gst-plugin-pipewire as an optional dependency for those using Pipewire.

pipewiresrc seems to be a dependency of this. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-network-displays/-/issues/237#note_1408502

@yochananmarqos

This seems to be the misunderstanding. https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-network-displays/-/blob/master/README.md#network-configuration-and-socket-connection states that dnsmasq is usually used.

In my case, dnsmasq was necessary to establish a connection to my Samsung J-Series TV. gnome-network-displays does not provide any error message when the connection fails because of missing dnsmasq. The only indication for that can be found in the log of networkmanager.

@istobic: dnsmasq is not mandatory for this package. I do not have it installed and it works fine.
