@MarsSeed: Hi, I can't reproduce your crashes. Have you modified your PKGBUILD? Could it be that there are old files from previous installations, such as configs or build caches?

This package crashes for me with a segfault (coredump).

Repo's rxvt-unicode (binary) and AUR's rxvt-unicode-better-wheel-scrolling-unicode3 (source-build) are the only alternatives so far that I've tried, and they both work fine.

Crash log of rxvt-unicode-truecolor-wide-glyphs 9.31-6:

@mrdotx I was using url-select. Thxs!

@ralpheeee88: Hi, from your description, I can only guess... I think you have used "url-select" to yank URLs. The Problem is "url-select" is deprecated for many years:

https://github.com/xyb3rt/urxvt-perls/tree/master/deprecated

Try "matcher" instead of "url-select". A working configuration that can be used as an example can be found in my dotfiles:

https://github.com/mrdotx/dotfiles/blob/master/.config/X11/Xresources.d/rxvt-unicode

Not working:

y Copy (yank) selected URL and quit selection mode

working:

Alt+u Enter selection mode. The last URL on your screen will be selected. You can repeat Alt+u to select the next upward URL.

o Open selected URL in browser without quitting selection mode

Great package, thank you for putting this together!

For i3 users: prompt location is still pretty messed up unfortunately after that update.

There's a bug open https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/77062 since January but it doesn't look like this will be fixed any time soon.

The geometry workaround also only works if you never switch urxvt to a floating window. If you do, then this workaround actually just makes things worse.

The current workaround is to comment out line 397 in screen.C. Adding the following line to the end of PKGBUILD prepare() function should do the job:

sed -i '397 s/^/\/\//' "${srcdir}/rxvt-unicode-9.31/src/screen.C"

At the moment this package and other Terminal-Emulators in the AUR cannot be build due to a 'fix' for CVE-2023-29491 in ncurses.

You can find detailed information here:

1. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=286373
2. https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/78578

Try the following steps as a workaround:

1. replace ncurses by install ncurses-git from the AUR
2. install rxvt-unicode-truecolor-wide-glyphs
3. replace ncurses-git from the AUR by install ncurses

Should be fixed with version 9.31-4 of rxvt-unicode-truecolor-wide-glyphs...

When I install this package,I got an error while building.

Finally, a working urxvt with the patch applied, awesome package!

With the enable-wide-glyphs.patch, urxvt crashes with a segfault in some specific situations:
