@juancarlospaco Thanks for pointing out my typo
As for assuming that ${HOME} always exists in the .sh bash script, this is correct and intentional; we don't install anything to this location inside of the package itself.
What we're doing is creating a unprivileged user desktop file that overrides the globally installed one and we find the correct path to the UE editor and execute it in the script.
Ah, I had actually made a typo with creating the folder you were missing
That aside, I corrected the sed command and fixed that typo
pkgrel=20 Errors:
sed -i "s/InstalledLocationPlaceholder/${_install_dir}/" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/com.unrealengine.UE5Editor.desktop"
sed: -e expression #1, char 36: unknown option to `s'
==> ERROR: A failure occurred in package(). Aborting...
$
It is this line sed -i "s/InstalledLocationPlaceholder/${_install_dir}/" "${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/com.unrealengine.UE5Editor.desktop".
BEFORE line that says install -Dm755 ../unreal-engine-5.sh "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/",
I had to add mkdir -p "${pkgdir}/usr/bin/" for it to work, otherwise it fails too.
It should be fixed; I'm creating that folder sooner now
It shouldn't have been an issue in the first place in the code but I'm just making that folder as soon as possible now to get it out of the way
pkgrel=18 More errors:

It is after wget'ing the LICENSE.
@juancarlospaco I wrote line 135 differently to prevent that error and reported the logic bug in bash upstream | Edit: it seems it's just how bash handles that line, rather than a bug
That aside,I see that you're having a similar issue as @coolitic with the file path being incorrect... I think I see where the logic is going wrong with it now; I hadn't considered a certain possibility before and I've taken a step to resolve the issue
What was happening was that ${srcdir} was being called twice even though it should not have been at all; this might just be how bash handles loop code, so I re-wrote how it's handled
pkgrel 17
Also error mv: cannot stat '/home/juan/code/unreal-engine/src/unreal-engine//home/juan/code/unreal-engine/src/unreal-engine/*': No such file or directory.
I am using git and makepkg on bash only, no AUR helpers.
@juancarlospaco What version is line 10 for you? Line 135 is considered valid in bash but I have seen an odd issue like this before, so I need to confirm
Some errors PKGBUILD: line 135: [: false: integer expression expected., it is the boolean conditional in the if.

@juancarlospaco this is easily done on your own system, not in a PKGBUILD, given that building packages runs as root:
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
777permissions. 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).zerophase commented on 2021-05-27 08:15 (UTC) (edited on 2021-05-30 08:41 (UTC) by zerophase)
Will update to 5.0 when it is released.
