Master configured to build with system wlroots and wfconfig already installed now fails to build here.

looks like a problem with packaging, so please report it to the package maintainer (@epsilon-0 ideas?)

Done prior to this post, which is also reported:

Hmm, I don't think our submodule is wrong. @epsilon-0 Can you elaborate what the problem with our submodule version is?

Am building it on my end and checking as well.

OK, this seems to be failing on a git fetch scenario.
So its not reaching the configure phase (let alone compile phase), so not exactly a packaging issue.
Will see more on what is happening....
Exact error, if it helps:

OK, found the error.
Its an error on the submodule link inside wayfire, the correct link should be to
https://github.com/swaywm/wlroots/tree/74f7be728715e164d5b7f174491797ce31206c8d

The commit that the submodule is currently pointing at is not part of any branch and hence cannot be pulled by portage (which defaults to master branch)
The link that I've posted is the same commit but that when it is merged into the master branch.

If you could change the submodule to the new commit that I've linked it should work fine!

Tested working fine again here.
