The use of -march=native is intended by Ares developers for squeezing more performance from your CPU, at the cost of portability. This is critical for some core (e.g. N64), where some extra FPS could make the difference between a playable game and a less playable one. Since this is AUR where one builds a binary for themselves, it makes sense to sacrifice portability for some more performance.

If you need to redistribuite the binary, you can edit the PKGBUILD by adding local=false to the make line, like this:

make -C "${srcdir}/ares-${pkgver}/desktop-ui" hiro=gtk3 compiler=clang++ local=false

local=false sets -march flag as x86-64-v2 instead of native.

Is 'base-devel' installed? Can you post the entire log? It would help to know more details about the error.

It doesn't build for me, ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

That was it, I've felt I forgot something. Thanks for the tip!

ares-paths.patch and LICENSE should be in the source array, plus they should be used from $srcdir.
