I managed to build it, but I don't have an adequate GPU I guess and it just errors out.

Without mesa-vulkan-radeon installed:

Error: No suitable `wgpu::Adapter` found.

With mesa-vulkan-radeon installed:

[2024-08-08T13:35:39Z ERROR wgpu_hal::vulkan::instance] enumerate_adapters: Initialization of an object has failed
Error: No suitable `wgpu::Adapter` found.

I don't suppose Void has something like vulkan-swrast in it's repo?

Thanks. I get the same error as you.

OK, seems to work fine. mesa-vulkan-lavapipe is now in repo, so I just installed that for testing it.

Don't know if I should add mesa-vulkan-lavapipe to depends. Will it conflict with other packages if the user has a newer GPU and natively supports Vulkan?

[Eloitor]

Maybe adding an install message suggesting this package...

[Eloitor]

I tested it with mesa-vulkan-lavapipe. I get this error:

[2024-08-17T17:59:40Z ERROR sctk_adwaita::pointer] Failed to set cursor

And the cursor doesn't show up (I can move it around and toggle the different buttons of the program).

I'm on gnome.

Maybe it has something to do with the DE, I'm using xfce.
