@patlefort: known issue -> https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/issues/4865

If you can provide me a modified PKGBUILD I'll be glad to use it. I spent nearly 30 minutes trying to apply the patch for dosbox-x github.

This bug is fixed in dosbox-x-sdl2-git version.

Doesn't compile currently with this error:

speexdsp/fftwrap.c: In function ‘spx_fft_float’:
speexdsp/fftwrap.c:388:19: error: passing argument 2 of ‘spx_fft’ from incompatible pointer type [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
  388 |    spx_fft(table, _in, _out);

Adding -Wno-error=incompatible-pointer-types to CFLAGS fixes the issue. But of course it should be fixed upstream.

@spifeeroo: cleaned up PKGBUILD following your comment. Thanks a lot.

I had to remove the CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS, and LDFLAGS section from the PKGBUILD in order to get the package to build. My /etc/makepkg.conf file has basically the default of pacman 6.1.0-3 with -j8, and I do not have CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS or LDFLAGS globally exported. Also "--enable-core-inline" flag appears to be invalid in the log. There does not appear to be that option in the ./configure file.

Brief note, latest pacman with changed makepkg.conf and aggressive compiler flags appears to break this package. More importantly, there is a sound stutter on my Windows 3.11 in any version later than 2022.12.26 see https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/issues/4883. To avoid this problem I forked this package and rolled back to last stable working version. I use it to run https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnny_Castaway from 1992 as X11 screen saver.

@patlefort: tweaks applied. Thanks a lot.

Patch to fix some problems:

-  chmod +x configure

 }

• Remove -Werror=format-security from flags rather than overriding all the flags.
• Remove unnecessary chmod.
• Remove -j$(nproc), that flag belong to MAKEFLAGS variable in user's makepkg.conf.

Amazing, thank you @FredBezies!!

@jichu4n: --enable-debug is now activated.
