@lspci - That sucks that curl can't download from their site. I've never seen that before, they have a horribly misconfigured and ancient version of apache running, that is failing to serve 404s apparently :S I could host a copy of the epsxe zip on my site which would actually work and allow you to follow the packaging guidelines if you would like?

Thank you :) Fyi, I've just uploaded the PKGBUILD for epsxe-plugin-spu-eternal

Sure, and I don't remember there being any particular reason for me using 774 instead of 775, I mean, as long as it works and peeps are happy, I'm okay with it.

Also, could you please add the symlink /opt/epsxe/1.9.0/cfg -> /opt/epsxe/cfg/ in the PKGBUILD? Thanks!

hcartiaux commented on 2014-01-04 18:24 (UTC)

Thanks for this package. But, why do you use chmod 774 and not 775 for /opt/epsxe/ subdirs ?

The source must be wgetted because it can't be downloaded using curl, and since it can't be downloaded with curl, the PKGBUILD can't take advantage of a lot of the thiings that makepkg does for you like extracting source and md5sum checking. I choose to embed the script rather than add it to sources so that I wouldn't have to be constantly updating the md5sum whenever I made a change to the script. Lastly, in order for peeps to actually be able to change settings and have those settings persist across epsxe sessions, the .epsxerc file must be in the same directory as epsxe, but since it should really be in peeps' $HOME dirs, I had the PKGBUILD create a symlink in the $pkgdur that points there. Does that answer all your questions? I know that the PKGBUILD is more than a little unorthodox, but just bear with it.

This PKGBUILD makes me wish AUR had a downvote. What the hell is going on here? Why are you wgetting, md5sum-checking and unzipping the source in the prepare() function instead of putting it the sources array and letting makepkg fetch it? Why is there a script embedded in the PKGBUILD that ultimately gets installed with the package instead of it being shipped as a separate source file (like epsxe.{desktop,png}). Why does package() create a symlink in $pkgdir that points to the packager's $HOME??!

K, I added it. Don't know how I missed the '2' in lib32-gtk2. Sorry about that.

@lspci: did you even look at the PKGBUILD? ;-) It needs lib32-gtk2 as uberushaximus said, not lib32-gtk which is a completely different package.
