"depends" must have "dosbox-staging":

provides=("dosbox" "dosbox-staging")
conflicts=("${provides[@]}")

Meson installs subprojects files by default, this will conflict with system libpng files. Just add --skip-subprojects libpng to meson install to prevent this behaviour.

I cannot reproduce or confirm this. Please try removing your old package, and your aur helper cache and rebuild. If that does not work, we can investigate further.

Hi everyone! I've cut down on the dependencies listed in the PKGBUILD. So long as fluidsynth, libslirp or munt is no longer installed on the system, dosbox-staging will build the dependency and statically link it internally.

If you install the new version of the package, and later remove the old dependencies, you will need to rebuild this package or you will get library not found errors.

magamo commented on 2022-09-19 12:44 (UTC)

I actually had already done that and removed it from makedepends. Enjoy!
