Description:
intel-gpu-overlay won't be built if its dependency, peg, is missing. This is a recent change by upstream, and resulted in intel-gpu-overlay no longer being shipped by Arch Linux

from #intel-gfx@freenode
<CounterPillow> What happened to intel-gpu-overlay? Is it part of something else now, or gone entirely?
<Adrinael> CounterPillow, still in IGT, it doesn't get built if you don't have its dependency, whatsitcalled, peg
<CounterPillow> hm, so maybe an Arch Linux brainfart then
<Adrinael> It's a recent change that easily goes unnoticed
This task depends upon

Still an issue in 1.22-1, any information on when it's going to be fixed?

I wasn't aware of the bug, so haven't fixed it.

I attempted building it myself with the aforementioned package installed, but first ran into trouble with /usr/bin/leg not accepting argument -P, after removing that another error took its place and I decided not to mess with it further and conduct my testing on Ubuntu for now.

Maintaining packages isn't easy so thank you for your time!

I've adopted peg on the AUR https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/peg/ and was able to successfully build and run intel-gpu-overlay with it.

peg is a possible candidate for inclusion into [community] so we can depend on it, though the upstream seems a little dead (no new release since 2016). A TU would also have to adopt it (or I would have to become a TU, hint hint nudge nudge).

Alternatively, I could separately package intel-gpu-overlay on the AUR.

Added peg to the repos and it's now supported in -3.
