Arch Linux User Repository

@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.

@mihalycsaba, build it in a clean chroot or use one of my pre-built packages. There are links in the comments.

Build is failing, with the default PKGBUILD. Tried it with -march=native too, same result.

@artivision I have no idea what "red class" might mean.

Other than that, I cannot revert the package, you can build the previous version locally if you want.

As for the problem, I have not encountered it and you are not giving me enough information to go about investigating it. Such information would include more than one games, what the error looks like with relevant context, if it happens with GE from their repository, any other information you have gathered while looking for the problem.

As I replied in your comments in wine-ge-custom and wine-ge-custom-opt, this is simply not enough, I need this information to do something for the problem.

Good day. Major Gstreamer problem with GE8.15, many games like RE8 hung in the intro video. Please revert to GE8.14 or check for Gstreamer 1.22.5 compatibility. This update its red class.

@loathingkernel I opened an issue here.

@niobium93 Try the one from my repo below, if it's different, we should probably contact the ChaoticAUR people.

Edit: I also looked into the Chaotic AUR package now. namcap -r permissions complains with mulitples of the following for the Chaotic AUR package

proton-ge-custom W: File (.BUILDINFO) has the world writable bit set.
proton-ge-custom W: File (.MTREE) has the world writable bit set.
proton-ge-custom W: File (.PKGINFO) has the world writable bit set.
...
proton-ge-custom W: File (usr/share/steam/compatibilitytools.d/proton-ge-custom/proton) has the world writable bit set.
proton-ge-custom W: File (usr/share/steam/compatibilitytools.d/proton-ge-custom/proton_3.7_tracked_files) has the world writable bit set.
...

My repo package doesn't do that. I don't understand where the difference comes from.

I actually just installed the package as built by ChaoticAUR. Build log here.

@niobium93, that's odd. Can you look into it a bit more if it's on your side? Because locally I don't see that issue.

When updating from 2:GE.Proton8.13-1 to 2:GE.Proton8.14-2 pacman spammed a bunch of these warnings:

warning: directory permissions differ on /usr/share/steam/compatibilitytools.d/proton-ge-custom/files/
filesystem: 755  package: 777

Seems like a bunch of stuff was made writable by any user, which seems like a mistake.

@pipes80,

it takes less to install linux from scratch

Not if you want a complete system, but close to that nonetheless.

About an hour and a half on the 4-core 4-thread Haswell that I am using. I also provide pre-built packages here https://github.com/loathingKernel/PKGBUILDs/releases/tag/loathk-public
