Hi, please report ydotool bugs to upstream. Only report packaging issues here. Thank you.

Thanks for providing this package which I installed today. I can confirm that Auto-Type works for KeePass with Wayland on KDE. Cool!

Oh, that explains a lot of things, thanks for reporting that. I'll fix it tomorrow.

Hey I think the systemd service file should go to /usr/lib/systemd/user. At least I have previously run my own service as a user service. Tried running it as a system service and ydotool doesn't find it.

Also, in my opinion it would make more sence if it was called ydotoold.service, but this is an issue at upstream. I will open a ticket there when I find the time.

@novenary yes, it looks like it is.

I added a workaround so us Arch users should be good for now :)

libydotool.so is still not being installed to the correct location, but that's very likely an upstream bug. I will report it there as well.

Edit: someone else already did, here's the link: https://github.com/ReimuNotMoe/ydotool/issues/57

@ReekyMarko added :)

@patrigg I must have missed your comment email, thanks for the suggestion

ReekyMarko commented on 2020-03-02 19:45

There is a systemd service file for ydotoold included in the repo here

Can you add it to the PKGBUILD so it's installed to the correct place?

I have changed the build() and package() functions like this to make it work again:

build() {
  cd "$srcdir/${_pkgname}"
  mkdir -p build && cd build
  cmake .. \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR=lib \
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
    -DSTATIC_BUILD=0
  make
}

package() {
  cd "$srcdir/${_pkgname}"
  make DESTDIR="$pkgdir" install -C build/
  mkdir "$pkgdir/usr/lib"
  mv "$pkgdir/usr/bin/libydotool.so" "$pkgdir/usr/lib"
}

Heyho, when installing it won't find libevdevplus and libuinputplus. Even if I install the *-git versions by hand, they won't be linked "ld: cannot find -luInputPlus -levdevPlus" Any suggestions?

FYI if you haven't built this in a while, the latest update to boost will break ydotool (it can be fixed by rebuilding this package).
