Hello, I did not release an update for v.2025.05.03 because there is a build issue of the integrated SDL1, which I already reported: https://github.com/joncampbell123/dosbox-x/issues/5692

UPDATE: The issue has been fixed upstream, I will update the PKGBUILD when a new release comes out.

I'm getting a segfault on execution.

It might now be reset to the default value: LOG: "" is not a valid value for variable: configuration tool theme.

Thanks for the update @mike.cuche

upload on aur a ffmpeg-compat-60 like?

dosbox-x: error while loading shared libraries: libavcodec.so.60: cannot open shared object file: No such file or director

Does not start due to several libraries from extra/ffmpeg being updated eg. libavcodec.so.60 was updated to libavcodec.so.61. Linking does not fix this problem.

Can't get this to compile. Getting

I tried removing just -march=x86_64 and it was still broken, so I dropped it all. My patch as-is should treat all other architectures the same as before (it only changes the PKGBUILD for aarch64). Other architectures must have already been broken.

I don't have an aarch64 Arch machine to test on, but you should be able to keep everything but the -march=x86_64. Have you tested that these other flags (in particular -O2) break the build on aarch64? Also, your patch as-is breaks on everything that is not (aarch64 || x86_64). Really, the correct approach is to probably get the architecture with uname -r and use that as the argument to -march.

The CFLAGS workaround seems to break the build on aarch64. The following fixes it:
