@mogwai, thanks i've modified the CFLAGS and build fine but it stack in Entering faling root environment: 99%] Building C object CMakeFiles/box86.dir/src/wrapped/wrappedturbojpeg.c.o [100%] Linking C executable box86 /usr/sbin/ld: warning: -z pack-relative-relocs ignored [100%] Built target box86 make: Leaving directory '/home/lacan/Developments/box86/build/src/box86-0.3.6/build' I've waited a whole day and still in this state.. any idea what's th problem

@Lacan: This is an issue with makepkg for armv7h; it's completely broken. As the error message specifies, you should remove -mno-omit-leaf-frame-pointer from the build flags in /etc/makepkg.conf. It is possible that you also need to remove a recently introduced setting for LDFLAGS in that same file, but I'm not sure anymore.

I've got this error while building, any idea how to fix this: ==> Starting build()... -- The C compiler identification is GNU 14.1.1 -- The ASM compiler identification is GNU -- Found assembler: /usr/sbin/cc -- Detecting C compiler ABI info -- Detecting C compiler ABI info - failed -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/sbin/cc -- Check for working C compiler: /usr/sbin/cc - broken CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/CMakeTestCCompiler.cmake:67 (message): The C compiler "/usr/sbin/cc" is not able to compile a simple test program.

@Shatur: In principle, it is possible. However, in practice it would be extremely difficult to set up on archlinuxarm. ALARM doesn't have lib32-* packages (i.e. armv7h) which would be needed to run both box86 and wine x86. Distros like debian do have nice infrastructure to have separate architecture libs co-exist on one system. Archlinux doesn't, so you would have to set up that environment by yourself.

In other words: if you would want to try that out, it's probably better to install some debian-based system. I think I've seen tutorials on how to set that up with box86 and box64 running on an aarch64 system.

Shatur commented on 2023-04-24 18:17 (UTC)

Is it possible to install this package on aarch64 to run Wine x86?

systemctl restart systemd-binfmt is missing in post_install() function. See https://github.com/Itai-Nelken/weekly-box86-debs/blob/main/create-deb.sh#L70-L74.

Building in Termux surfaces python as a missing makedep.

@logan2611: box64 and box64-git have now also been added

mogwai commented on 2021-08-08 19:26 (UTC)

Yes, I will add it in two weeks from now. I already had a draft version ready. (I'm afk, right now.)

logan2611 commented on 2021-08-07 08:08 (UTC)

Could you also add box64? https://github.com/ptitSeb/box64
