Haven't tested it but its asking for QtWaylandScanner_EXECUTABLE, you seem to miss the Qt prefix.

[hervyqa]

my bad. i didn't add qt5-wayland to hostmakedepend. build succeeded, but virtual-keyboard still doesn't show up.

I've installed this on KDE plasma and it works reasonably well. I just dislike that it has no ctrl, alt etc keys, but that's going to be possible with maliit/keyboard#236.

[hervyqa]

I haven't succeeded in displaying maliit-keyboard. Can I get the maliit-keyboard screenshot? @Anachron

[Anachron]

@hervyqa Yeah sure, here is a terminal example (de keyboard layout, Ambiance theme):

Edit: It was actually the Ambiance Themen.

Will you reopen this or should I create my own PR?
I dont see anything wrong with it. It works as expected.
If you have problems with it showing up, its not related to this package and we can debug it on IRC.

I'm sorry @Anachron, i can't reopen this PR. only admin can change it. cc: @classabbyamp

[hervyqa]

rebase. ready for review. @Anachron @classabbyamp

[the-maldridge]

Something went wrong with your rebase and the -doc package is now broken. Please fix and re-push.

[Anachron]

Finally, all is well! Very nice.
I've recompiled it and confirmed on my StarLabs StarLite MK V that this indeed works as expected on x86_64-glibc.
