Sorry my bad, it should work now.

Multi packages in one PKGBUILD is not that easy if upstream do not build everything in one time ;-)

I had some trouble building this latest version. I am on Manjaro in case relevant, although it isn't apparent to me that would be the issue.

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:227 (message): Could NOT find Solarus: Found unsuitable version "1.6.5", but required is exact version "2.0" (found /usr/include) Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:589 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE) cmake/modules/FindSolarus.cmake:69 (find_package_handle_standard_args) cmake/AddDependencies.cmake:39 (find_package) CMakeLists.txt:10 (include)

Can I take over this package?

I have a fully functional and up to date PKGBUILD for the engine, editor and launcher, in sync with the latest developments (v2.0 branch).

I also build a game based on this engine, so not hard for me to maintain it.

To people trying to build this package and having issues, just install the cmake3 package from AUR and add this patch to the PKGBUILD:

Hi, fail to build:

@matth Thanks, fixed.

Since the latest update I get this.

CMake Error at gui/cmake/AddDependencies.cmake:5 (find_package):
  By not providing "FindQt5LinguistTools.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
  project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
  "Qt5LinguistTools", but CMake did not find one.

  Could not find a package configuration file provided by "Qt5LinguistTools"
  (requested version 5.7) with any of the following names:

    Qt5LinguistToolsConfig.cmake
    qt5linguisttools-config.cmake

  Add the installation prefix of "Qt5LinguistTools" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or
  set "Qt5LinguistTools_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above
  files.  If "Qt5LinguistTools" provides a separate development package or
  SDK, be sure it has been installed.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  gui/CMakeLists.txt:8 (include)

It seems the qt5-tools dependency that was removed is still needed. Builds fine after adding that back in.

@franck.stauffer Thanks, pushed.
