It is suggested you install retroarch-assets-xmb-git over retroarch-assets-xmb, as the community packages is currently missing assets.

Just wanted to comment that, at least on my system, building RetroArch from scratch causes certain cores (namely Flycast) to crash to desktop starting from commit d862f87 (seems to correlate with the addition of an ffmpeg-based camera driver, despite explicitly setting no camera driver at all). System currently has ffmpeg-obs installed instead of the normal one in extra, for hopefully obvious reasons. AppImage version works just fine.

How come jack support is disabled in this package? I enabled it and it works fine.

I've tried Jack on 1.15.0.r809.078df8ba39 (20230901) and retroarch crashes immediately on startup. Probably uses (too) old Jack API.

Compiling RetroArch fails when using Clang with LTO enabled and with the linker set in makepkg.conf as lld, etc :v

Currently the Qt bits fail to compile. Either use --disable-qt passed to configure or set the standard flags to c++14 (been unsuccessful with this one so far)

I think this package needs to depends on perl-net-dbus, otherwise I see this when launching a dolphin game (Mario Kart Double Dash):

Can't locate Net/DBus.pm in @INC (you may need to install the Net::DBus module) (@INC contains: /usr/lib/perl5/5.30/site_perl /usr/share/perl5/site_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.30/vendor_perl /usr/share/perl5/vendor_perl /usr/lib/perl5/5.30/core_perl /usr/share/perl5/core_perl) at -e line 6.

Building fine with rich presence for me now

Currently fails to build due to the Discord integration. Upstream issue here https://github.com/libretro/RetroArch/issues/10046

EDIT: Updated PKGBUILD to disable the Discord integration until that is fixed upstream.

xorg-xrandr is needed to compile. Please add it thanks! :)
