- dwm crashes rendering 🟢 symbol
-
dwm keeps crashing when opening some websites or when executing some commands
The workaround before the libXft upstream was corrected was to install (or manually patch the fixes from) libXft-bgra.
-
Xorg terminates immediately after the startx loaded dwm
I've attempted to patch libXft with libxft-bgra -> https://github.com/uditkarode/libxft-bgra I've executed the make install portion, how can I now replace the libXft with the libXft-bgra? When I try to: xbps-remove libXft I get: libXft-2.3.4_1 in transaction breaks installed pkg \libXft-devel-2.3.4_1 ~... pango-xft ~...sxiv-26_1` and many other dependencies. When I add them to my xbps-remove command, eventually even xorg would need to be removed.

Ubuntudebian Icons In Dwm Status Bar And Dmenu
git clone https://github.com/uditkarode/libxft-bgra cd libxft-bgra sh autogen.sh --sysconfdir=/etc --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man
Did you get this working? I've installed the Noto Color Emoji, removed the lines that avoid dmenu to crash, cloned the repo https://github.com/uditkarode/libxft-bgra , compiled it, but still not working.

Better way to manage patches?
https://github.com/bakkeby/st-flexipatch -- "The flexipatch builds have a different take on patching where preprocessor directives are used to decide whether or not to include a patch during build time. This means, for better or worse, that the code contains both the patched and the original code. The aim being that you can pick and mix your patches from a configuration file and just compile."
