It is working for me now, even switching to another language other than english (it was complaining about missing localization and keyboard files before).

@Nocifer try the new update that should fix it

Hi, I'm getting the following error after upgrading to 0.79.0:

Apparently it can't find the bundled shaders? Unfortunately I don't have time to rebuild the previous 0.78.1 and compare, but I know that it worked fine when I last used it a few days ago. I don't see anything mentioned in the new version's documentation about any tweaks that may be required regarding the shaders, but I'm also not sure if it's really a bug because I don't see anything reported on upstream's issue tracker (and something big like this should have been noticed immediately).

I'll wait for some feedback here first before I report it. Thanks.

The latest release comes with a bash completion script. This should be added to the bottom of the PKGBUILD to include it:

install -Dm 644 "contrib/linux/bash-completion/dosbox" "$pkgdir/usr/share/bash-completion/completions/dosbox"

@DosAmp i have moved munt to depends and remove the static option, that should fix your issue

DosAmp commented on 2021-12-18 11:05 (UTC)

The optional dependency on munt still doesn't work for me. As it stands, the build still downloads munt-libmt32emu if the munt package is not available, but only builds the dynamic library libmt32emu.so under build/subprojects/ (without even packaging it), not a static library that gets linked into the dosbox executable.

@rustemb libpng is now a dependency

rustemb commented on 2021-09-11 20:54 (UTC)

Add, please, libpng as required dep https://builds.garudalinux.org/repos/chaotic-aur/logs/dosbox-staging.log

ParaSait commented on 2021-07-10 22:51 (UTC)

That works.

silverhikari commented on 2021-07-10 22:28 (UTC)

@ParaSait i have added static to the build see how it works out now
