libxft-bgra-git orphaned

Closed this issue · 2 comments

I recently installed a slightly modified version of Luke's dwm, and every time I sign in, I receive a message saying I need to install libxft-bgra-git from the AUR. However, this package has been orphaned.

Thankfully, I can simply run 'startx' and use my system without any issues (including rendering color emojis), so I assume that libxft takes care of everything on its own now.

What do I need to do so I can get rid this persistent message?

I had installed libxft-git which replaced libxft-bgra-git. Getting same issue at login as OP. Now later package is not showing in aur. HELP!!!

Just remove the message and check from the .zprofile. It's long obsolete now. The normal libxft should be sufficient now as it has been updated. No AUR needed.
