New comment by pullmoll on void-packages repository https://github.com/void-linux/void-packages/issues/14477#issuecomment-532658529 Comment: It is `vala >= 0.44.6` (which we had) and also `0.44.7` related. I'm thinking of adding `vala-lts` and `valadoc-lts` packages using 0.40.16 to temporarily solve the problem, i.e. until `vala` *stable* is fixed or `swell-foop` is fixed to work with `vala` *stable* again. Edit: Tried it - doesn't solve the problem. Using a `vala-lts` to build `swell-foop` is not a solution. :(
