Hyprload not installing on Hyprland 0.31.0 (built from source)

[yewhan]

As mentioned in #24, hyprload fails to install. I was on Hyprland 0.31.0 when I posted that issue, and I've since updated to the latest commit and still face the same issue.

Proof of Hyprland version:

hyprctl version
Hyprland, built from branch main at commit a1b138a6258b00787cea43bddc48b7caa8cca3a0 dirty ([gha] Nix: update wlroots).
Tag: v0.31.0-35-ga1b138a6

flags: (if any)
debug

Do you have any suggestions to debug the issue?

Posting error again for visibility:

I can second this, i get the same error

[Magnitudexx]

I have another error where it fails to include wlr_idle. Maybe that just makes it not include anymore header files. The header file needed for SCallbackInfo is not in the hyprload directory

[Magnitudexx]

Made a clean download and install of hyprland and that removed the SCallbackInfo error

Any chance you can remember your exact steps? I've tried to clean install a bunch of times now, but I'm still getting the SCallbackInfo error.

Same here. It's worth noting that I am running hyprland-nvidia-git. This is what my Hyprland version outputs:

Saw this notice on another plugin repo: https://github.com/outfoxxed/hy3#arch-aur

Pacman is not very reliable when it comes to building packages in the correct order. If hy3 fails to load or build, crashes randomly or behaves oddly (commonly dispatchers stop working) then your packages likely updated in the wrong order, or you have hyprland headers in /usr/local.

To fix this, remove /usr/include/hyprland, /usr/local/include/hyprland, /usr/share/pkgconfig/hyprland.pc and /usr/local/share/pkgconfig/hyprland.pc, then reinstall hyprland and hy3.

After following this I'm now able to install hyprload

I tried this, after that i get a different error, had the same one before that (sorry for german system language):

@Rdeisenroth The version error is probably because you're using the hyprland-nvidia-git package from the AUR? There's a problem with it currently. Download the PKGBUILD, in this line, change '*.hpp' to '*.h*', and then run makepkg -si. It will install Hyprland again and include the version file.

Oh thx, yes that fixed it. I left a comment at the aur package requesting a change in the PKGBUILD.

I am getting this same error.
Installed Hyprland from arch repos. (tried removing hyprland and installing back again) No luck.

@niksingh710 You're using Hyprland 0.30.0, that's probably the issue. Looks like https://archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/hyprland/ is outdated. Try the -git version instead.

yep it worked.
