patrick96 commented 5 years ago

Were you able to previously install polybar?

Could you please delete the build folder, rerun build.sh and post the entire output here, there may be some other information there.

Please also post the versions of the python-xcbgen and xcb-proto packages.

alexis974 commented 5 years ago

It was my first attempt to install polybar.

I tried again by deleting the build folder and rerun build.sh (as you said) and the same error happened. Here's the entire output :

** A build dir already exists (pass -f to replace)

You didn't completely remove the build folder. You can run ./build.sh -f to have the script remove it for you. Please post the output of that. We need the output of build.sh when there is no builder folder because some information is only printed the first time you run build.sh.

I'm also working on reproducing this.

alexis974 commented 5 years ago

Here is the output I have with : "./built.sh -f"

Thanks. I will report back once I get my Ubuntu 18.04 VM up and running.

I was not able to reproduce the issue on my machine. But the differences in our logs hints at your issue:

You seem to have xcb-proto 1.8 installed (alongside 1.13) and polybar detects version 1.8 and thus fails. You need to remove all traces of version 1.8. I'm not quite sure how you can do that on ubuntu, but reinstalling xcb-proto might help.

Alright thanks a lot for your help ! I tried to remove it, but with no luck. I'll try to find a way to remove it in the next few days. I'll post the solution as soon as i find it
