Arch Linux User Repository

I've adopted this and updated it so that it builds and runs as expected.

Let me know of any issues.

I had the same problem as https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/issues/1352 and I could solve it by applying the following patch to PKGBUILD.

31c31
<   cmake -D WITH_SYSTEM_FFMPEG=Off ..
---
>   cmake -D WITH_SYSTEM_FFMPEG=Off -DWITH_MINIMAID=OFF ..

There's an "enable notifications" button on the right-hand side of every package's page.

Oh! nvm then.

BTW, how could you reply me so quickly? In other words, how to get notify in ArchLinux site?

Those binaries won't work on Arch because why're built against older libraries. What I ended up doing is using that binary in a docker container, and that worked fine for me.

Instead of compiling directly, why don't you just use binaries?

I was able to build with gcc7 up until recently, but now I get "Fatal: crash from within the crash signal handler" when trying to run the program.

I couldn't find an easy way around that, so I tried just updating the PKGBUILD for the alpha of 5.1, which is already more than a year old but does work on my setup. Here are my changes: https://gist.githubusercontent.com/qmega/5eb3a89ae8018d69257147edc8721d96/raw/e938decb311dc91adc53ce3c6363c40fcf0d9d47/aur-stepmania-fix.patch

Some nastiness because upstream has moved some things to submodules but doesn't include them in its source archive, so I added them as separate sources. One of them (cppformat) has recursive submodules that no longer resolve, but the build works without them so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I wish it were cleaner but honestly, StepMania is just not that distro-friendly.

Ok, thanks for the information.
I will look into this and adjust the PKGBUILD in some days.

I had no issue building stepmania 5.0.12 with core/gcc (7.2.0), maybe swap the gcc5 dependency for gcc to reduce the build time considerably. The cmake command I used is `cmake -DWITH_MINIMAID=OFF -G "Unix Makefiles" ..`. No MINIMAID to work around https://github.com/stepmania/stepmania/issues/1352.

A recent change to /etc/makepkg.conf breaks ALL GCC5 compilation (not just this package)
-fno-plt has been added to the default list of flags and is not supported in GCC5. I'm not sure the best way to work around this currently. For now I've commented it out to compile this package.
