@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).

Will update to 5.0 when it is released.

I can't get this to work. With a clean git pull and makepkg -sirc, it errors out partway through on:

cp: cannot stat '$REPO/src/unreal-engine/LocalBuilds/Engine/Linux/*': No such file or directory

(the $REPO is just marking the path of the repo, somewhere in ~/Downloads, not literally in the output.)

There's a big scary red line just a bit further up:

Unhandled exception: One or more errors occurred. (The type initializer for 'UnrealBuildBase.Unreal' threw an exception.)

(I tried a bit more fiddling, e.g. creating that directory or putting a file in, but it just ends up hanging later on, with no error message and no CPU usage. I figure it's probably caused by the same problem.)

Got the following error when I got to installing the unreal-engine 5.1.0-25 package:

error: Partition / too full: 35238678 blocks needed, 1522864 blocks free

Will I really need to allocate 134 GBs of root space?

Make sure you have vulkan-icd-loader and vulkan-intel installed; your CPU's iGPU supposedly supports Vulkan, so I'm not sure why else you'd have this issue.

pkgrel=25 Works, thanks to everyone that contributed!!.

Neko-san commented on 2022-12-09 23:06 (UTC)

Good, then; I added you to the contributors list, by the way, for helping out with the packaging function

shawarden commented on 2022-12-09 19:57 (UTC)

That seems to work. Both with git / makepkg and with yay.

Sorry about that, I misinterpreted something I read on how to prevent a Bash SC2115 warning:

pkgrel=24 Errors:

rm: cannot remove 'unreal-engine/src/unreal-engine/*$': No such file or directory

Looks like a stray $ found its way onto the end of L217
