Build Failing on OSX with Homebrew

[cetra3]

Not too sure whether this is something that needs to be updated, but homebrew is now dishing out vte version 2.91 rather than 2.90.

I get this error when trying to build:

thread '<main>' panicked at '`"pkg-config" "--libs" "--cflags" "vte-2.90"` did not exit successfully: exit code: 1
--- stderr
Package vte-2.90 was not found in the pkg-config search path.
Perhaps you should add the directory containing `vte-2.90.pc'
to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable
No package 'vte-2.90' found

Correct, you need to uninstall vte3 and use the formula that is in this repo by going to the root of the project and running brew install vte3.rb. My code does not currently work for the latest version of libvte. I hope to get it working for it eventually, but I'm currently stuck on a technical issue with it.

[cetra3]

Ok. I was blindly following the instructions on the README, I'll give your suggestion a shot.

[oakes]

The README actually did mention vte.rb but I just edited it to make it more clear. Let me know if you still have issues.

Hi @oakes,

It appears to be stuck on neovim-rs after resolving this issue. While neovim compiles correctly, It looks like it's not running the build script so it is not adding the right -L params. If I run cargo build within the neovim-rs directory it works fine, but not within SolidOak.

Should I raise a seperate ticket for this?

Here's the error message I get:

I've seen this error before but I can't seem to replicate it right now. I deleted neovim-rs from my ~/.cargo/git/checkouts folder to force it to redownload and rebuild it, and it did so. I made a small change to the neovim-rs build script so maybe it will help (just do a git pull && cargo update and try building again). Feel free to make a new issue about this if the problem persists.

Seems to build with your most recent changes!
