@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).

Thanks, all, this successfully builds and installs now! It complains about other stuff once running, but I'm betting there's some permissions stuff I need to fiddle with, so I'll refer to the wiki for next steps.

Thanks again!!

@Neko-san I only saw (even after refreshing) 376e1761a6adfb7d7a46d029e35cb329cc7ea101, but the new stuff is there, I see it now.

No, it looks like it updated the PKGBUILD: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/commit/?h=unreal-engine&id=6dd6ce046f4c696065e9c1e7f91600e0ca379365

Uhhhh, weird; I'll take a look

OdinVex commented on 2023-07-07 08:43 (UTC)

@neko-san That push only updated rel. Forgot to git add the PKGBUILD?

OdinVex commented on 2023-07-07 08:37 (UTC)

@neko-san Yeah, find was a bit...nuke-like. xD

Neko-san commented on 2023-07-07 08:36 (UTC)

Ah, yes, I see it; I'll correct that

Neko-san commented on 2023-07-07 08:31 (UTC)

I updated the PKGBUILD to solve that issue by finding the license by using find instead; I've never had the problem you've described but this should more reliable.

@neko-san It's because of the cd correction you added in d9919275d0cc67bbf952f1f4183728c6901b166c, as I mentioned. Don't you see a potential issue with that if block?... One block cds, the other doesn't... and only because you didn't need to move the cd, you just needed to correct the paths the first time around in that block.

@trainzkid Follow the posts backwards to find out how to shortcut the process to save your build. If I recall, full path to src LICENSE.md should've been used instead of relying on cd in a specific order.
