@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).

@nicksms Yeah, I'll go ahead and have a patch up in a bit. I might as well go ahead, and patch the build tool so it can detect different distros. By any chance have you had any luck getting UBT to compile from an IDE. I've tried with Rider, but always fails to compile; I've had no problems when compiling on the command line.

Hey, can you include a patch to change "/usr/bin/python" to "/usr/bin/python2" in Engine/Source/Programs/UnrealBuildTool/HTML5/HTML5SDKInfo.cs? It uses the wrong python (the scripts are written for python2.7; on most distros python evaluates to python2.7 (not this one)) and HTML5 build fails. Also, HTML5SDKInfo.cs doesn't exist until after Setup.sh is run

@xDShot makepkg doesn't support shallow clones. If they put that feature in the package would be able to do the shallow clones.

@zerophase Still failing on the sha256 (xlocale-crash.patch) here - cleaned pacaur cache.

@zerophase Is there a way to download sources on certain commit instead of cloning WHOLE repo with deep history? I tried to clone with depth=1 before processing makepkg as makepkg clones all commits.

zerophase commented on 2017-10-26 06:24 (UTC)

@xDShot delete the repo and redownload it. Looks like you have a shallow clone somehow.

It should be working now.

zerophase commented on 2017-10-26 03:31 (UTC)

Ok, I think I know the issue. It's the __locale patch had the line endings changed when committed to git.

Majora320 commented on 2017-10-26 03:21 (UTC)

@zerophase I tried deleting everything, cloning from here, and running `makepkg -sri` and got the same error.
