Updated to 4.25.4
I also disabled strip
option by default.
@Dejz, thanks, added openssh
to makedepends. But I have no idea why you can't clone it manually :( Try to check commands from PKGBUILD
.
@jedrzejowski, thanks, fixed.

EDIT: Fixed by using aur sync -c unreal-engine --bind=/home/<USER>/.ssh/:/build/.ssh/
and adding openssh
to makedepends.
I'm having trouble building the package with aurutils in a clean chroot.
First, I had to add openssh
to makedepends, otherwise I would get
error: cannot run ssh: No such file or directory
fatal: unable to fork
Now I get
==> ERROR: You must register at unrealengine.com and link your github account to access this private repo. See the wiki for more info: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Unreal_Engine_4
==> ERROR: Build failed, check /var/lib/aurbuild/x86_64/<USER>/build
because my ssh key under ~/.ssh/ is not recognized. I can manually clone the repository just fine. Any ideas how to fix this?
If anybody is annoyed by missing desktop entry in gnome menu, you can edit /usr/share/applications/com.unrealengine.UE4Editor.desktop
:
Name=Unreal Engine 4 Editor
Comment=Create next-generation video games
Path=/opt/unreal-engine/Engine/Binaries/Linux/
-Exec=UE4Editor %F
+Exec=/opt/unreal-engine/Engine/Binaries/Linux/UE4Editor %F
MimeType=text/x-uproject
Icon=ue4editor
Terminal=false
When downloading the dependencies before the build, the download tends to break and you have to start again. If I compile UE4 by hand, its all good, I can just start over. But the package install dies at that moment and upon restart deletes what it has downloaded so far. So I am not able to finish that step and have the package installed.
Does anybody have these problems? https://www.reddit.com/r/archlinux/comments/hokp2t/unreal_engine_4_crashes_desktop/, I can't work now :(
well, it seems that it compile perfectly, the problem was that I had downloaded the master branch which was the 4.25.1 under development and it was broke. now I have downloaded the 4.25.1 stable release in Ubuntu and the Setup.sh downloaded the dependencies without issues, then I am compiling in Arch perfectly!
I have downloaded the .zip source code from github manually and then I executed the Setup.sh for download the dependencies in Ubuntu.
Is there any problem running the Setup.sh in Ubuntu?
because I'm trying to compile in Arch and I have had compilation problems, when I execute makepkg within Arch all goes well until the log shows an error because UnrealBuildTool is looking for clang 9.0.1 inside UE4 folders (which exists) and not in my system.
I have installed clang 10 and 9.0.1 from AUR and still the same error. It seems that UnrealBuildTool don't see the compiler and clang is in my system and inside UE4 folders...
I don't know what to do, please help...
I can launch it from the terminal properly. On the wiki it says I can run it from the menu, but there is no entry there (I am on manjaro-gnome). It is not a big problem because I can use from terminal easily. I just curious because I might have done something wrong.
I found some .desktop files on '/share/application'. As in 'com.epicgames.UnrealEngine.desktop', 'com.unrealengine.UE4Editor.desktop' and 'com.epicgames.UnrealVersionSelector.desktop'but they are pointing to my var rather than my opt.
Updating it to opt filepath and making them able to run didn't work either.
Looking for a solution I found that could be some bug with gnome https://forum.manjaro.org/t/solved-cannot-launch-desktop-files/92331/14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/378783
But so far, it only happened when I install this package from AUR. So I wonder what I should do to fix it.
I had no space to build it, but moving my /var to another mounting point helped to build it

@juancarlospaco this is easily done on your own system, not in a PKGBUILD, given that building packages runs as root:
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).zerophase commented on 2021-05-27 08:15 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-30 08:41 (UTC) by zerophase)
Will update to 5.0 when it is released.
