I will consider it, thanks for sugestion. Anyway you mentioned permissions errors - do you have any, or this is just precaution?

Would it perhaps be better to install this to /opt/ as most games seem to be doing nowadays? Have a look at the packages for uplink or doom3. Desura even allows regular users to write to /opt/desura/common. To avoid permissions errors, we could install to /opt/ and allow users to write to ARENA2, something which might be unsafe to do in /usr/share.

Try setting "core=normal" in /usr/share/games/daggerfall/dagger.conf. It might help. I believe this is dosbox issue with it's "dynamic" core. If setting core to normal helps (performance might be not best) try reporting this to dosbox people - they will probably ask you about your cpu and some other details that can help in tracking this.

After clicking on "Start new game", it crashes giving "Exit to error: DRC64:Unhandled memory reference". Any idea on how to solve this problem?

(in case when user isn't in group games, it wouldn't work anyway - for example, there would be no way to save the game. That's why in install info I listed that it is necessary to include all users that are allowed to play this game in games group)

The permissions were OK actually, it was group that wasn't right. I forgot about this file when I fixed other bug - one regarding not portable permissions (moved setting of group from PKGBUILD to .install file). Thanks for noticing.

the "daggerfall" script installed in /usr/bin has wrong permissions: "-rwxr-xr--" instead of "-rwxr-xr-x"

I removed the unzip hack, it works now without it (because of fix in libarchive 3.0.3-3)

It works alright now, thanks.

For some reason extracting zip files does not seem to work when using pacman 4. Maybe something I'm not aware of changed. For now I added the files to "noextract" and unpack them using "unzip" in first lines of build function - I will try to find better way, but until then it works.
