Dependency libfmt (fmt) has been updated to version 10.0.0-1, breaking this package's dependency on libfmt.so=9-64, preventing installation.

Btw, something I'm watching for pcsx2-git as well, https://github.com/PCSX2/pcsx2/pull/9281 - They about to switch to C++20 some submodule changes and a few other things we'll have to handle.

@ben0mega No, makepkg cannot be run as root. Also, read the install file.

I spent some time this last weekend trying to get pcsx2 working with xlink kai (which is also in the aur)[2].

This PKGBUILD sets -DENABLE_SETCAP=OFF, which prevents the build from doing sudo setcap 'CAP_NET_RAW+eip CAP_NET_ADMIN+eip' on /opt/pcsx2/pcsx2-qt[1]

Running that command and having libpcap installed is necessary to use xlink kai, at least on the games I tried. Without those commands the PCAP Switched ethernet device type option doesn't work.

Can we enable that in the PKGBUILD? Are we able to use setcap in the build chroot?

Totally fair! And I think that'd be a great differentiator between our packages as a matter of fact. I've kinda always wanted to have a stable and a git version. Now if we could only get it into the main repo xD I'm going to also be working on other distro packages in the future but will be maintaining pcsx2-git as whatever the hells on the git repo no stop

@FabioLolix Thanks for the links, I'll take a look. I will say though, this package seems to have gone back and forth between vendoring and devendoring across its history, I'm sure devendoring will piss off upstream even more lol

btw also Alpine is building this and they are devendoring some stuff and applying some patches

Once they do a stable release, then sure. For now I think it makes more sense to follow the pre-release tags because the alternative of sticking to a 3-year old unsupported release doesn't sound good for anyone using this package.

Heya, maintainer of pcsx2-git here. So, my understanding is you're planning on maintaining this as stable in the future?
