https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/11632

This package now enables Cmake Package mode proper. PCSX2 will here on, be installed in the package standard folders /usr/bin, /usr/share, /usr/lib. Following the XDG standard pcsx2's config files remain in .config/PCSX2

In order to ensure a proper and clean upgrade. Uninstall this package COMPLETELY and clear cache before reinstalling.

I gotchu. It was more an attempt to better match the AppImage / Flatpak build scripts then anything else.

Packages generally shouldn't use ccache. Can interfere with reproducibility, mask packaging errors, etc.

This package is fixed

weirdbeard commented on 2024-06-07 17:30 (UTC)

My only concern is it breaks in the future because of some change or, another. And we'll have to re-up the other pcsx2 package on this which is why I did the package style I did in the first place, lower maintenance cost on both fronts.

That said if you guys are absolutely adamantly certain this is the better way, that's fine.

@xiota Yeah, that was sort of my point. setcap is run in post_install, so if we use patchelf in build or install, setcap capabilities would not be removed. I like this approach though, set rpath, build lib with pcsx2, move it to opt with the binary, etc.

@weirdbeard, do you have any thoughts?

@patlefort Which capabilities are you referring to? The appiamge build script in the pcsx2 repo uses linuxdeploy to create the AppDir, which when passed the --library flag uses patchelf to set the rpath on the binary to $ORIGIN/../lib. You can check this against the binary packed in the appimage.

About patchelf: If you use --add-rpath, it will undo setcap which could explain why it suddenly start working. EDIT: if patchelf modifies anything in the executable, capabilities are lost.
