That's strange - I just pulled the latest version of Hyprland and was able to build it successfully. Maybe delete your Hyprland repo and re-clone - perhaps you cloned at a bad time or something (pretty unlikely). Otherwise I'm afraid I don't have any insight into your issue. You could check out the wiki and see if you can get it to compile using cmake instead of ninja. Edit to add: I ran xorg-x11-server-Xwayland-21.1.4-1.fc35.x86_64 Edit once more: I looked at the meson.build file for wlroots - it specifies a wayland-server version >= 1.20. You said you're running F36 so you're probably up to date, but you may want to check your package version. |

same here hyperland has a wayland server requirement of 1.21 and fedora repos only have 1.20.what could have changed in such a short time. |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.

I encountered this on arch not long ago. The "problem" is that Hyprland follows the current git development of wlroots fairly closely. The bundled wlroots version is never more than a couple of weeks behind the latest git commits, and wlroots recently bumped their Wayland server requirements to 1.21. I don't know how feasible it is to downgrade the bundled wlroots submodule, but that might be the best bet if upgrading the wayland-server isn't an option. |

You're absolutely right. We use podman instead of mock at work for repeatable non-contaminated builds. However for personal use, I'm OK with a quick build using the system packages. |

I'm no longer able to build Hyprland due to compiler errors. The reason is the recent switch to the C++23 standard and the use of I guess I've put off upgrading long enough, it may finally be time to do so. |

This is very strange - I have F35 on my laptop and F36 in a test VM, and I can compile Hyprland with ninja in both places. I looked through the meson.build file in the subprojects/wlroots repo for the wayland-server requirement - you might want to do the same to see if what's there matches your system. It looks to me like the method for determining whether the requirement for wayland-server is met might be internal to meson - when I have a bit of time I'll dig around and see if I can turn something up, because you're certainly not the only person who's run into this problem. Edit to add: it looks like people are having the same issue with some of the other Wayland compositors that use wlroots (newm, wayfire). @SteveHNH above looks like he was able to get meson to run by adding some more packages - you might see if that will work for you. |

Hey folks, I took a look at packaging hyprland to try it out on Fedora. It's available in this COPR repo. https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/carlwgeorge/hyprland/ I'm not sure that I'll stick with it, but I'd like to avoid this packaging work going to waste. Would any of the hyprland developers be interested in becoming Fedora packagers to maintain an official Fedora hyprland package? I can see that @vaxerski co-maintains the AUR package, this would be a similar set up to that. The spec file I wrote already complies with the Fedora packaging guidelines. I can add it to Fedora and sponsor someone to co-maintain it to ensure it stays up to date. |

RPM packages created with fpm do not comply with the Fedora packaging guidelines. I suspect similar things are true for other distro package formats. It's not a tool for creating correct packages, it's a tool for creating hacky one-off solutions that are not maintainable long term. It solves the problem of "I want a package file right now that will technically install", and doesn't look past that problem in the slightest. |

-
|
Aw interesting @carlwgeorge can you elaborate more about complying with Fedora packaging guidelines? Coming from natives mobile apps world we are using similar tools (jenkins/fastlane) to 'package' Android/iOS apps and fpm looks like a lot of fastlane so I am curious if ever I need to package something one day. 🙂 |

-
|
I don't package for RPM, but I think this applies to every package manager. The action of putting the files in some package format is not the hard part, but getting a build system that builds the package in a system as hermetic as possible, where every dependency is properly declared in the build process and the resulting package. In that sense, fpm doesn't solve much. |
Beta Was this translation helpful? Give feedback.
-
|
fpm doesn't use RPM spec files, so right out of the gate it breaks every rule related to spec files. This includes the general rules about spec files as well as all the other various rules throughout the guidelines that are implemented or enforced as spec file macros and conventions. It also appears to focus on building RPMs from pre-built sources (tarballs, other package formats, etc.), and all packages in Fedora must be built from source code. I honestly don't have time to go through and enumerate every rule in the guidelines that it violates, but those are probably the two biggest show-stoppers. |

IMHO... your issue is that you Hyprland setup is not automated and you are afraid to waste your time to get it working again. So... my advice would be that you should do clean F39 |

Just to update, it is likely that you need to install |

As of 05/18/24, for anyone still wanting to build from source on Fedora, a current build issue seems to be able to be resolved by first building current release of wayland-protocols from source (Fedora package apparently not yet updated to the version needed to build Hyprland - referencing this issue.) |

The steps to build Hyprland on Fedora are relatively simple and very similar to the steps described in the wiki. The main difference is in the package names between Arch and Fedora. These steps were tested on Fedora 35 and Fedora 36 Workstation. This was done on a laptop using only an integrated Intel video driver - I don't have an AMD or Nvidia GPU to test with.
To begin, install the necessary packages:
sudo dnf install ninja-build cmake meson gcc-c++ libxcb-devel libX11-devel pixman-devel wayland-protocols-devel cairo-devel pango-develThis base set of packages will pull in all the required dependencies. You may also want to install
gdbif you intend to debug crashes.Then, download the Hyprland source:
git clone --recursive https://github.com/hyprwm/HyprlandThe
--recursiveargument is important - it will clone the required branch of wlroots into the subprojects directory. Note that compiling with the master branch of wlroots will cause compiler errors - you need the branch of wlroots with the modified structures.Now you're ready to build Hyprland. I used ninja for my build:
cd Hyprlandmeson _buildninja -C _buildsudo ninja -C _build installI may have some missing drivers on my system - the wlroots config couldn't enable the vulkan renderer. However, Hyprland seems to be working fine without it. Also, as far as I can tell, Fedora doesn't have an
xcb-errorspackage, so the wlroots config won't be able to find this, either.There were some compiler warnings during the build, but no errors.
You can try building with cmake instead as described in the wiki, but I like ninja myself, so I went for that first.
At this point, Hyprland will be installed. However, on my system at least, I needed to install the Hyprland.desktop session file somewhere that gdm could find it, because it appears gdm doesn't look in /usr/local/share/wayland-sessions:
sudo cp /usr/local/share/wayland-sessions/hyprland.desktop /usr/share/wayland-sessionsFinally, copy the sample config file into place:
mkdir -p ~/.config/hyprcp example/hyprland.conf ~/.config/hyprEdit the config file to match your system, and then log out. Hyprland should show up as a selectable option in gdm - note that it may not if gdm is running in an X session instead of Wayland, so check
/etc/gdm/custom.confand make sure Wayland is enabled. There's a note in the wiki about Hyprland crashing the first time it's launched from gdm, but I didn't see this - Hyprland worked the first time.Thanks to @vaxerski for making such a cool window manager!
