No "select" directory

[alessiocelentano]

Hi, I was downloading this awesome theme but I got an error:
==> Starting package()... /home/cele/.cache/yay/grub2-theme-vimix-git/PKGBUILD: line 37: cd: /home/cele/.cache/yay/grub2-theme-vimix-git/src/grub2-theme-vimix-git/assets/assets-white/select: No such file or directory

OS: Arch
AUR helper: yay

I just encountered this same issue.
Turns out that there's many different "select-*" folders in "assets-white". If you manually install the git (git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/grub2-theme-vimix-git.git cd grub2-theme-vimix-git), you can edit PKGBUILD on line 37 to point to whatever resolution you need, find the correct folder name to point to using cd src/grub2-theme-vimix-git/assets/assets-white. That's how I fixed it, hopefully this helps.

EDIT: To install after you've made the edit: While in grub2-theme-vimix-git (the original folder you created by git cloneing), run makepkg -sri and it should make and install Vimix w/o error.

Of note:
Looks like this git is very unfinished. The icons folder is empty and there is no theme.txt file in /boot/grub/themes/Vimix.

These must be copied from src/grub2-theme-vimix-git/assets/assets-white/icons-<RESOLUTION> (into the empty icons folder at /boot/grub/themes/Vimix/icons) and src/grub2-theme-vimix-git/config/theme-<RESOLUTION>.txt (to /boot/grub/themes/Vimix, rename to theme.txt).

After all of that is done, you may edit and update grub as instructed.

Hope this helps, and I also hope that this git's PKGBUILD gets finished.
