I've fixed build issues and added a patch to change where config.cfg and savegames are written to. config.cfg will be written to $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vkQuake2/config.cfg and saves to $XDG_DATA_HOME/vkQuake2.

If you have this issue when launching the game: X Error of failed request: BadValue (integer parameter out of range for operation), try launching it with gamescope.

It uses xwayland on Wayland but runs fine.

rpi2 commented on 2024-03-03 00:14 (UTC)

After the removing of libxxf86vm from the depends array the package is not buildable anymore within a clean chroot environment documented at https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/DeveloperWiki:Building_in_a_clean_chroot

mesa glu are the required dependencies. Hard to spot as they are present on pretty much any machine building this, but not if somebody else decides to automate this.

I built the required libxxf86dga but I can't build this on Aarch64. I've tried all releases from 1.5.3 when Arrch64 support was added with the same result: https://pastebin.com/EUGRpbaF EDIT: This was fixed a week ago & your git package builds fine. Thank you.
