Installed all libraries, by following the installation guide. However, every time I trying to build picom by using meson --buildtype=release . build, this problem appears:

Had the same issue for x11 and x11-xcb libs, but solved it by searching and installing them manually. As for the xcb-renderutil, even after searching for it and installing manually, problem remains the same.

did you install libxcb-render-util0-dev? it's listed in the README

Yes, sure, I installed all dependencies. To prevent mistakes, checked it again. For libxcb-render-util0-dev it says:

0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 24 not upgraded.

So, problem remains the same.

You are using pkg-config from linuxbrew, not the system one. You need to figure out how to install xcb-renderutil with that.

Build and install goes well, but picom throws an error at start:

But it's running...
But segfault on Ctrl+C exit

Segmentation fault (core dumped)

And config autoreload on change doesn't works.

Then i tried uninstall and to reinstall like this:

sudo ninja -C build uninstall
rm -rf build
git submodule update --init --recursive
meson setup -Dprefix=/usr --buildtype=release . build
meson configure -Dprefix=/usr build
meson setup -Dprefix=/usr --reconfigure --buildtype=release . build
ninja -C build
sudo ninja -C build install

Is it related to:

Run-time dependency libev found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)

???

@Flashwalker,

Build and install goes well, but picom throws an error at start:

[ 29.01.2023 22:51:32.704 file_watch_init ERROR ] inotify_init1 failed: Too many open files

try increasing the limit of open files, there is an example.

But segfault on Ctrl+C exit

do a debug build of picom (meson setup --buildtype=debug build && ninja -C build), catch a segfault, get a backtrace of it (coredumpctl gdb and bt in the opened gdb) and post it here.

But X error warnings still exist

it's a known issue at least on xfce (it seems that you're running it from the #1012), the solution is being discussed in the #984. currently you can't do anything about it.

Is it related to:

Run-time dependency libev found: NO (tried pkgconfig and cmake)

???

no, it's okay to get this error while building.
