This package will track nightlies until the next stable release, as that is what upstream supports and the last stable release is 3 years ago.

I'll try to keep up as much as possible with upstream, but realistically releasing an update every few hours is not happening, especially if I'm going to be checking that it builds properly as one should. Most likely I will only be pushing new versions on weekends.

So, expect once or twice-weekly updates. OOD flags will be removed, just comment if there is a build issue.

Also a reminder: if there are issues specific to this package (i.e. you tested the official AppImage and the issue is not present in the AppImage), report them here. This shouldn't happen often as I will try to maintain deps and flags in accordance with the upstream CI.

If you find an issue with both this package and the AppImage, then report it upstream. If you haven't tested the AppImage... test the AppImage.

Standard caveats and guidelines about AUR also apply:

  • Read the wiki

  • There is no support for non-Arch distros or AUR helpers

  • Always build in a clean chroot before reporting build issues

Hi. Could you fix the icon reference with the following diff: http://0x0.st/Hk_S.diff

Without this diff the icon is not visible on the desktop entry file.

The procedure of the flatbak build is similar: https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/blob/0c708e8c1eff47bb94e1ae620368606bebf0aae7/.github/workflows/scripts/linux/flatpak/net.pcsx2.PCSX2.json#L59

@HurricanePootis The DISABLE_ADVANCE_SIMD option is misnamed (in my opinion). It does not disable avx. It probably did, a long time ago, and its use would have been appropriate for Arch/AUR because Arch supports only x86-64 (v1). But now upstream pcsx2 requires sse4 (v2). They also create "multi-ISA" binaries that use dynamic dispatch to support multiple versions (sse4, avx, avx2) of some functions when DISABLE_ADVANCE_SIMD=ON. Modern CPUs would be expected to use the avx2 version of those functions, but I have no way to confirm.

When DISABLE_ADVANCE_SIMD=OFF, the pcsx2 cmake scripts force march=native, which is wrong for AUR packages.

Hey, can I ask why you are disabling advancing SIMD support? Seems like most people with modern CPUs should be able to take advantage of it.

installing fmt (10.0.0-1) breaks dependency 'libfmt.so=9-64' required by pcsx2

@neoexpert remove pcsx2 then procede with the update

Do you have an old version of pcsx2? because it don't list fmt as depends and use its own git submodules for that

I'am getting following error when I try to update with pacman -Syu:

resolving dependencies... looking for conflicting packages... error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies) :: installing fmt (10.0.0-1) breaks dependency 'libfmt.so=9-64' required by pcsx2

Sorry about that. Anyway, I reboot and this time, It built. Weird thing, I have the same error with cemu, and It still doesn't build.

eclairevoyant commented on 2023-08-04 22:05 (UTC)

@Funkin-Stoopid that's not a proper log, can't help you there. if you need help post the full build log on a pastebin-like site.

Funkin-Stoopid commented on 2023-08-04 21:47 (UTC)

Hello build failed with error: ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

@narwhalofages Thanks, fmt has been removed as a dependency.
