Please don't flag this package out-of-date just because the version number displayed on AUR seems old. This is normal for VCS packages. As long as building the package works without problems, it isn't necessary to update the PKGBUILD here. makepkg will automatically retrieve the latest version when you build the package locally.

@Farzat, sorry, I don't know if this will ping you or not. Removing all the packages you listed did not cause any problems in LazyVim, except for tree-sitter itself. Neovim does not start with the following error: "nvim: error while loading shared libraries: libtree-sitter.so.0.25: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory".

Farzat commented on 2026-02-11 15:28 (UTC)

@Elis I see your point.

I am assuming we need to remove tree-sitter-c, tree-sitter-lua, tree-sitter-markdown, tree-sitter-query, tree-sitter-vimdoc, and tree-sitter-vim.

But what about tree-sitter itself? Can you please check?

Elis commented on 2026-02-10 14:28 (UTC)

Is tree-sitter-vim really needed as a dependency? It breaks its use with various builds, such as LazyVim.

The problem that arises: https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/issues/8369

Forced removal fixes the situation. Not sure if it breaks anything in pure Nvim, but it solves the problem in Lazy.

@fwalch You're right, I guess I just had an unlucky commit.

Farzat commented on 2025-11-20 06:51 (UTC)

@Knotrocket, I tried building the package just now, and /usr/bin/tee was not in the list of files output by pacman -Qlp (i.e. I could not reproduce the issue).

Knotrocket commented on 2025-11-20 02:11 (UTC) (edited on 2025-11-20 02:16 (UTC) by Knotrocket)

This package attempts to override /usr/bin/tee for some reason even when installing with makepkg directly in a minimal VM.

# Make Arch Vim packages work
mkdir -p "${pkgdir}"/etc/xdg/nvim
echo "\" This line makes pacman-installed global Arch Linux vim packages work." > "${pkgdir}"/etc/xdg/nvim/sysinit.vim
echo "source /usr/share/nvim/archlinux.vim" >> "${pkgdir}"/etc/xdg/nvim/sysinit.vim

mkdir -p "${pkgdir}"/usr/share/vim
echo "set runtimepath+=/usr/share/vim/vimfiles" > "${pkgdir}"/usr/share/nvim/archlinux.vim

Doesn't to umask 022, so only root sees these newly created files. If you have a custom /usr/share/nvim/sysinit.lua, then this will override that and trash root's nvim setup while leaving users alone.

@meflove It's because neovim at HEAD requires tree-sitter 0.25. It should work well if you install tree-sitter-git.

@Ranguna I had the same issue and it's because aur/tree-sitter-git was out of date. Rebuilding that first allowed neovim-git to compile successfully.
