Mismatch between pkgconfig and headers location

Description:

There is a bug in the PKGBUILD file for hyprland-0.39.1-1

The bug will only be noticed if anyone tries to build a plugin using the headers.

Additional info:

  • package version(s): 0.39.1-1
  • config and/or log files:
  • link to upstream bug report, if any: No bugs upstream

Steps to reproduce:

cd /tmp
git clone https://github.com/dawsers/hyprscroller
cd hyprscroller
make dev

You will see an error about headers missing.

The reason is hyprland.pc (pkgconfig file distributed with Hyprland starting with v0.39) points to a location for the headers in .../wlroots-hyprland/

Cflags: -I"${includedir}/hyprland/protocols" -I"${includedir}/hyprland/wlroots-hyprland" -I"${includedir}"

This is because they now bundle their own version of wlroots, which is statically linked against the Hyprland compositor.

So the installation location for the headers should be updated in lines 79 and 82 to wlroots-hyprland where it says wlroots.

Thank you!
