Hey! Just tested this on ARM64/AArch64 (Asahi Arch Linux ARM, Apple M2) and it works perfectly with no issues, you just need to add 'aarch64' to the archs list in the PKGBUILD. I'd recommend you add this change so that other users don't have to tweak the PKGBUILD manually.

Suggested changes:
arch=('x86_64')
-> arch=('x86_64' 'aarch64')

@DodoLeDev it doesn't link wlroots and works on any compositor that also implements the protos. wlroots is not a requirement, it's just that wlroots 0.12 is missing some features.

As said on the project homepage, wlctrl "Requires wlroots 0.13+".

However, the wlroots dependency is not mentioned in the PKGBUILD!

Thanks @Brocellous

@darkfish Odd, not sure why that happened. Anyway, fixed I guess.

Hey @Brocellous, Can we get the checksums updated?

I suppose the upstream archive with 0.2.1 has changed, because I get next error when trying to install it:

==> Validating source files with md5sums...     wlrctl-0.2.1.tar.gz ... FAILED ==> ERROR: One or more files did not pass the validity check! error downloading sources: wlrctl

Here's a short patch if anyone is interested: https://pastebin.com/rQ83pkk4
