@rekman, thank you for looking into CUDA issues, at least it gives me an idea on how to fix it. That being said, my position remains to build it in a clean chroot, away from the locally installed packages. It is not feasible for me to carry patches for the build systems of various subprojects in the long run.

By enabling the 0003-AUR-Remove-kaldi-openfst-vosk-api-modules-because-of patch, you lose voice recognition which I assume is not that big of a loss as I haven't encountered a use for it, so I think it is an acceptable alternative.

Compilation will fail if you happen to have jwasm installed, due to vulkan loader. Workaround: uninstall jwasm or add this line to prepape() in the PKGBUILD:

sed -i 's/VULKAN_LOADER_CMAKE_ARGS = -DUSE_MASM=OFF/VULKAN_LOADER_CMAKE_ARGS = -DUSE_MASM=OFF -DJWASM_FOUND=0/' "$srcdir/$pkgname/Makefile.in"

Notes about this package

  • If you encounter issues while using this package, please contact me here first before reporting an issue to the upstream repository.

  • Don't post logs, link to them. If you are using Manjaro, another derivative or an AUR helper, please mention it, I DO NOT TEST AGAINST THEM AND I CANNOT KNOW WHAT MIGHT BE WRONG WITH THE DISTRO/HELPER OF YOUR CHOICE.

  • It takes a LOT of time and space to build. Building with multiple jobs helps but might cause builds to fail in rare cases. Be sure to have at least 16GB of RAM if you are building on tmpfs

  • It is NOT built against Steam Linux Runtime (Sniper, Soldier, etc) and as such it doesn't require it. Still, is detected by Steam and works properly (preferable through steam-native).

  • This PKGBUILD uses CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS hardcoded in the PKGBUILD itself. By default it uses the same C[XX]FLAGS as upstream, namely -march=nocona and -mtune=core-avx2. To change them you will have to edit the PKGBUILD itself. Due to the nature of this package some flags can cause it to fail to build or not function properly. I try to filter them out but it is based on testing. If you have a feeling that compile-time options are involved in the issues you are having please include them in your comment. Currently the filtered options are -fstack-protector-{,-strong,-all}(dxvk and vkd3d only), -fno-plt, -z,relro, -z,now. Also the use of AVX instructions is disabled through -mno-avx.

  • If you are not using CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS specific to your system this package won't offer much in terms of performance as the upstream build flags already target the nocona (Core2) architecture. It will possibly perform worse than upstream. The only benefits you get is not depending on steam linux runtime as well as linking to Arch libraries. If you still want to build it, you can uncomment the relevant lines in the PKGBUILD to enable CFLAGS and CXXFLAGS similar to the upstream.

  • There have been reports with afdko failing to find its dependencies during building. I can't do anything about that as I don't maintain that package. It is NOT an issue with this package and I haven't found a way to not depend on it. Please don't report fails due to afdko (or any of its python- dependencies, they are pulled in due to afdko and only used by that), it has been discussed enough. There are possible workarounds in the comments.

  • It contains a patch to store game prefixes in the main Steam Library under $HOME/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/compatdata. It helps with isolation of game prefixes between users and works around issues with shared libraries on NTFS partitions due to drive symlinks. To enable it, set the PROTON_USER_COMPAT_DATA env variable to 1.

  • This package requires a Rust 32 bit target, please run rustup target install i686-unknown-linux-gnu BEFORE posting any issues if you're using rustup.

https://www.mpg123.de/#2023-09-27 fixed it, managed to build successfully

loathingkernel commented on 2023-09-25 10:55 (UTC)

Same issue exists with gstreamer from Arch when trying to build it based on the newer mpg123. This will have to wait for a fix from the gstreamer project itself.

patlefort commented on 2023-09-24 19:29 (UTC)

Downgrading mpg123 to version 1.31.3 fixes the issue.

@mihalycsaba no, I monitor changes in the Makefiles, since they are patched to make it build. Your issue is probably the same one patlefort reported, between the time I tested building the package, and now mpg123 and lib32-mpg123 have been updated in the Arch repos. The issue is with that dependency and I need to fix the package itself.

imported build changes from upstream proton

This is from the release notes, could this have something to do with it?

I had no problems building the previous version, didn't change or install anything since. Btw thanks for your work, I spent a few hours trying to figure out what's wrong, but I don't know nearly enough to figure this out.

loathingkernel commented on 2023-09-24 15:31 (UTC)

@patlefort now, I know that you indeed build it in a clean chroot. But how did my CI build it correctly then? This sadly will have to wait because my dev machine is currently down for maintenance.

patlefort commented on 2023-09-24 15:07 (UTC)

Compile error, clean chroot:
