I've got to agree with vdemin. Considering that you still have to manually select the soundfont in-game, I don't see why it should be included in the PKGBUILD. Edit: Also, to nitpick. At the top I should be listed as 'Contributor' since that's the "proper" term for old maintainer. https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Creating_packages#Defining_PKGBUILD_variables

Think majority of users will use the default soundfont. Experienced users can modify the PKGBUILD by themself if they have disk space trouble. I don't think many Arch users will cry for 100 additionnal MBs.

> You can remove the fluid package after install if you want. Install what I don't need and remove it with '-Rdd'? No, thanks. This is not Arch way. Maybe this is Windows or Manjaro way. If a package is not necessary to run a program, it should be specified in optdepends. Especially such a large package. You care about Windows and Manjaro users, but how about Arch Linux users?

That's an interressant question but I must consider "newbies in Linux World". I think it's better to offer a default usable soundfont... Don't forget, Manjaro distro uses AUR channel and I want consider it. My opinion is: if there is more windows users happy of our distros more of that users will adopt Linux world. I'm sorry... I don't want to put this package as optional. You can remove the fluid package after install if you want.

Are you sure that soundfont-fluid is necessary? > Total Download Size: 113,91 MiB > Total Installed Size: 141,51 MiB Maybe put it in optdepends?

I will add the dependancy soundfont-fluid but it's correct you must precise the path of your soundfont (but there is other soundfounts, not juste FluidR3). For variable $MAKEFLAGS, I will test....

In order to make sound work, I had to install soundfont-fluid and select /usr/share/soundfonts/FluidR3_GM2-2.sf2 in audio options. Also, make $MAKEFLAGS seems to be useless. Hope it helps :)

Enjoy the background music now :)
