@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).

@zerophase Thanks and nice work, it builds fine for me with clang 4 now.

I just added Clang 4.0 support. I have not noticed any crashes on my end, if there are any issues let me know.

@zerophase that was not the case since I tried to download the offending file with wget and firefox and it kept corrupting, it stopped failing at some point. I advice do clone the package and install it through makepkg for sure as it's too big to run into the risk of failing and have to start from beginning, downloading it again. Build went fine under 16GB, no problems.

clang downgrade to 3.5-3.9 may be necessary, since 4.0 is not supported yet.

@pepper_chico It's probably you running out of ram. If I'm recalling correctly using yaourt I needed about 40 gigs of ram (maybe even more) to build Unreal in ram. You can assign yaourt a temp directory on disk through the config file, and then you shouldn't have any issues with building from yaourt.

Managed to build after some tries. It's better to clone the package and makepkg it yourself than rely on yaourt since build may fail at some point for a random reason but may success next.

Manjaro isn't Arch. I have absolutely no problems installing this package on Arch.

Hi, I got an error about file not found. only /Engine/Binaries/DotNET/IOS/IPhonePackager.exe I realize that could be the flags to wipe windows/mac related files, so I commented again this, and run yaourt. The package built and installed, but other errors of files not found were reported, like 30 (just guessing), but they didn't stop the building this time. Nvidia/bumblebee/intel i5 - Manjaro xfce4
