@juancarlospaco this is easily done on your own system, not in a PKGBUILD, given that building packages runs as root:

sudo groupadd unrealengine-users
sudo usermod -aG unrealengine-users (your-username)
sudo chown -R root:unrealengine-users /opt/unreal-engine
sudo chmod -R 775 /opt/unreal-engine

Permission issues like this are already mentioned on the UE Arch wiki page: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Unreal_Engine_4#Installing_from_the_AUR

This is a user system problem; I already did what I could without needing users to do the above by giving the 777 permissions. If it still gives you trouble, you'll have to use the example to solve it or change the install location to somewhere you have user permissions by default (as I cannot do this for you).

Tell me the contents of ls src/unreal-engine/unreal-engine?

Ah, maybe they just changed the directory structure then? Hmm

etc  opt  usr

Ugh, can you cd into unreal-engine and ls for me? It would be easier if I can actually see the folder structure of the end-result

mv: cannot stat 'LocalBuilds/Engine/Linux/*': No such file or directory

...Let me know if the new change fixes it x_x

I reverted to something that I know used to work

This error makes no sense to me because literally two lines above it had no such issue without me explicitly creating the directory, but fine, I'll do it anyway since it's being so stubborn X_x
