The package does not build due to both CMake 4 removing compatibility with old versions.

It can be fixed by adding the following flag to the cmake command:

cmake -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.16 ...

(The problem is fixed upstream, so this will become unnecessary when the next release happens)

PKGBUILD (for this and git version) requires a change to 4th line of prepare() as follows:

  cd "${srcdir}/eternity"
  git submodule init
  git config submodule.adlmidi.url "${srcdir}/libADLMIDI"
  git -c protocol.file.allow=always submodule update

(-c protocol.file.allow=always needs adding)

If when you exit, your options aren't being saved and Eternity crashes, try disabling ENDOOM (Options -> Video Options -> System -> Show ENDOOM -> No). There's an upstream issue that causes a crash with some graphics drivers: https://github.com/team-eternity/eternity/issues/583

Package no longer builds due to improper git submodule setup.
