I experiment some trouble with Compiz since this Testing update.
Unable to open compig-config and I can’t select desktop with the panel plugin . compiz-xfce-autostart-setup is blocked after “Load plugin animation”
Unfortunately, this package currently fails to compile:

My graphics card, unfortunately, is too old to be supported by Nvidia 460.
However, I now managed to build the linux512-nvidia390xx package successfully and so I am able to run a 5.12 kernel. In the repo, there is linux512 5.12.rc3.d0314.g1e28eed-1 available which reports the following version in uname -r:
5.12.0-1-MANJARO
So far, no visible problems, only one error in the dmesg output:
[ 13.224696] pool-evolution-[830]: segfault at 0 ip 00007feec2859709 sp 00007fee937fc800 error 4 in libc-2.33.so[7feec27f4000+14c000]
This seems to be related to the evolution e-mail program, and not the kernel itself. I just rebooted, and was not able to reproduce this issue.
Wow, that was really quick! Thanks a lot for your efforts. With the additional kernel-5.12.patch and the updated kernel-5.11.patch, the package builds flawlessly.
Just installed the newly-built package and rebooted. So far, no problems. Thank you once again, that is really great work!
Weirdly I never noticed a popup for Spectacle, but by reading the bug report I tested a different shortcut (not print screen key alone) to take a screenshot, I pressed Shift+Print Screen and it actually worked. It might have stuttered like 0.3 seconds to show the popups though.

SDDM loads to a default theme that shows another error with libKF5KIOCore.so.5 (in the kio package), then KDE Plasma doesn’t load at all, with the error above.
Reverting to KIO 5.79.0-1 resolves the issue for me, but I couldn’t find anything after searching the internet that points to the cause so this one has me a bit confused.
The version of the gtk3 package in this update breaks the Mailspring-Libre package. See AUR comments here: .aur.archlinux.org/packages/mailspring-libre
A new version is up in the Arch repos which fixes the issue caused (gtk3-1:3.24.27-4). Would be great if we could get that pulled down in the next testing update.
