PKGBUILD tweaks

If you want to build with clang, add this part to cmake flags:

    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER='clang++' \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER='clang' \

If you want to use bundled fuzzylite:

    -DFORCE_BUNDLED_FL=ON \

If you want to use innoextract (system-wide installation won't work since vcmi has a temporary? fork of innoextract for now):

    -DENABLE_INNOEXTRACT=ON \

@Crandel Thank you for the contribution! I've tested the patch and everything seems to work for me. Added to a package until 1.6.x releases

@Gigas002

there is a patch available in the comments of my issue https://github.com/vcmi/vcmi/issues/4561#issuecomment-2333877704

The issue was created https://github.com/vcmi/vcmi/issues/4561

My bad, tested on a wrong machine. Could you please report this upstream, as the issue for it got removed, it seems? The flatpak maintainer just downgraded the boost version to 1.85 for now

Thanks for reporting this, @Crandel! Could you try out clean out all vcmi build caches and rebuild package, or try out building in a clean chroot? It builds and works for me without old caches

I've build this package several times, with cache clean and complete vcmi directory remove. The output is the same.

After updating boost to version 1.86 vcmi stop working and failed to compile with this error

The irritating qt6 compilation issue fix was merged and now I'm making qt6 default for this package

So, about the qt6 compilation... The upstream fix have been merged, however, since it was merged to a wrong branch it's not in a recent release. Hoping to see it in a next one. For now, I think I found out a dirty hack to force compile with qt5, have to live with it.
