Arch Linux User Repository

This package now builds and runs (at least in a clean chroot), so I'm setting pkgrel=1.

That being said there are still issues. Upstream support for Linux is not complete.

• The generated binary is 800MB+. For some reason debug builds are only 400BM+.
• Creating windows like file open dialogues is not working yet.
• Surely more....

Please watch the upstream tracking issue for official news on Linux support.

As soon as Linux support is official and the editor handles basic functions like opening a project saving edited files I'll get it migrated to [extra].

Now is possible to use something like this

StartupWMClass=dev.zed.Zed

in the .desktop file

Regards

Btw, I noticed this package builds with a package contains reference to $srcdir warning, if you want to fix that you can set RUSTFLAGS="$RUSTFLAGS --remap-path-prefix $PWD=/".

some problems with dependencies

It works very nicely, but it's using loads of RSS memory. Just a cold booted zed takes 1.2GB, if you open up a few projects I can easily reach 3GB.

Is this expected, or it's because we're building some debugging version here?

Official Zed Linux preview is available now. You can install it by running this command.

curl https://zed.dev/install.sh | bash

Please change category, it is not an "Office" program, it is a "Development" program, look at Sublime Text for example

@skualos. No, but it probably needs to be reasonably new. If you're using the Arch Linux cargo package that is new enough. If not you should update your stable toolchain anyway, so that's on you. Also this package builds just fine in a clean chroot, e.g. using the devtools package and pkgctl build --repo extra.

Does this package requires a specific version of cargo ? I get the following error
