Using file: gog_the_witcher_2_assassins_of_kings_enhanced_edition_2.2.0.8.sh I had to make custom links for following file: ln -s /usr/lib32/mesa/libEGL.so /usr/lib32/libEGL.so ln -s /usr/lib32/mesa/libEGL.so.1 /usr/lib32/libEGL.so.1 ln -s /usr/lib32/mesa/libEGL.so.1.0.0 /usr/lib32/libEGL.so.1.0.0 After that the game started but without sound, install missing libs: pacman -Syu lib32-alsa-plugins lib32-libpulse And no more issues at all on my minimal x86_64 install, about 2 hours in to the game.

I believe it makes sense to have PKGBUILDs for GOG games, that way dependencies and duplicate files can be managed by pacman. Therefore I have just created a quick 'wapper PKGBUILD' for another GOG-game (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/gog-mountandblade-warband/), the GOG installers are just executed inside the script, it requires user interaction unfortunately, as I have not been able to find a way to give the installer GOG uses the right parameters in a PKGBUILD after quickly looking at it.

Does it even make sense now to have PKGBUILDS for GOG games? Isn't the new installer distro-agnostic? I'm disowning this package now. I don't have time to update it.

GOG just updated the installers, now we have "gog_the_witcher_2_assassins_of_kings_enhanced_edition_2.2.0.8.sh" using the mojo installer. This pkgbuild no longer works. Plus it seems the game is all in all buggy now, crashes often on cutscenes, people using this version might be best off skiping the cutscenes.

Updated to @mirandir version of the PKGBUILD. Many thanks!!!

Well, I had some free time so I have updated my PKGBUILD, you can take it if you want ;) => https://www.dropbox.com/s/hv0hgrhee93n9sa/gog-the-witcher-2-assassins-of-kings-1.2.0.7-1.src.tar.gz?dl=0

@mirandir I'll look into it this weekend. I didn't have much time to update this PKGBUILD yesterday.

@fettouhi : you should really rebase your PKGBUILD from my last proposition (https://www.dropbox.com/s/e6kji39g02a7fgv/the_witcher_2_latest_beta.zip?dl=0). Many tricks in your PKGBUILD are not needed anymore, like the workaround, libcurl, ...
