If you have a problem during any system update with mutter-performance & gnome-shell-performance, please install mutter & gnome-shell packages from the main repository and do full upgrade first, then build the performance packages later.

If you are using [gnome-unstable] and [extra-testing] repositories, use gnome-shell-performance-unstable


To enable a specific MR in the Merge Requests List, add an line "_merge_requests_to_use+=('<MR number>')" at the end of PKGBUILD. (Because if you edit the line directly you can be able to end up with merge conflict upon updates.)


If you are getting errors like fatal: bad revision '73e8cf32' while building this package, refer to PKGBUILD and see which patches caused this. Then, go to the related URLs, replace the commit hashes. If there are conflicts, comment out the patches.

Please notify me in comment section if this happens.


The optional patches for performance and fixes are by default enabled.

Warning: Before making a report of something broken, make sure it is not caused by an extension or a custom theme!

@shrisha: I was stating the actions the maintainer would need to apply, but you could apply them to your local copy of the PKGBUILD before makepkg building it yourself as well.

Basically, you just need to git clone the read-only repository linked at the top of this page, and modify the PKGBUILD in a text editor. Find the line with the provides declaration, and add gnome-shell=$epoch:$pkgver to the setting, after the existing gnome-shell=$pkgver. Strangely, I have no such thing in my local chaotic-aur built copy, yet the gnome-shell-extension-arc-menu-git package installs just fine with this package and mutter-performance.

Maybe also try the chaotic-aur repository builds first? Assuming they even work with Manjaro. I have no idea what's up with forks of Arch, and they tend to break random things, hence users are asked to consult Manjaro's support resources for their specific issues.

@shrisha: needs another provides entry that also declares the gnome-shell with the epoch in the version string. Basically a declaration like:

gnome-shell=$epoch:$pkgver

After the existing two.

could not satisfy dependencies: removing gnome-shell breaks dependency 'gnome-shell>=1:3.36.0-1' required by gnome-shell-extension-arc-menu

???

I can't delete Arc menu extension.

@TheAifam5 Thanks for the report, I added it to the makedepends as the official package does.

while compiling you should set the "bash-completion" option false, or check if the package is installed. I dont use bash and does not allow me to compile due: gnome-shell/subprojects/extensions-tool/meson.build:36:0: ERROR: Dependency "bash-completion" not found, tried pkgconfig and cmake

@glitsj16 https://github.com/hussamT/gtk-patches and https://github.com/hussamT/mutter-patches

I'm using the shell+mutter+gtk patches and a nvidia 1050ti card.

glitsj16 commented on 2020-03-25 14:43 (UTC)

@hussam Would you be willing to share a link to your mutter/gtk3 patches? I'd like to try them, especially the gtk3 patch related to black background glitches. TIA!

hussam commented on 2020-03-25 14:31 (UTC)

Awesome. Thank you.
