@fufexan I don't think anything changed there, but considering this is meson

[fufexan]

Do you still have the meson log? If so, can you link it here?

[fufexan]

Exit code 127 means command not found, so either git/sed/coreutils are not present.

https://dpaste.org/yAV65#L611 somehow the script is not found. Probably an issue with manipulating the source.

Hyprland/.github/workflows/release.yaml

Line 23 in bc29992

mv scripts/generateVersion.sh scripts/generateVersion.sh.bak

The script is renamed here. It would be better to update the script to do nothing in the source tarball, since version already generated.

[fufexan]

I don't remember what purpose that served. I'll remove that line.

I managed to compile using the source tarball.
The thing was that the tarball already has a pregenerated version.h - which is not in git.
I used the Fedora solution like this and everything compiled: L154-156 https://src.fedoraproject.org/rpms/hyprland/c/0e2a3497f6c91555843241991abc15cc9975b69e?branch=rawhide
