@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).

...Let me know if the new change fixes it x_x

I reverted to something that I know used to work

This error makes no sense to me because literally two lines above it had no such issue without me explicitly creating the directory, but fine, I'll do it anyway since it's being so stubborn X_x

There, I added the new icon

Neko-san commented on 2022-11-18 23:11 (UTC)

Interesting, they didn't just move it, they REMOVED the icon entirely from the repo...

I'm going to have to supply my own now

Neko-san commented on 2022-11-18 23:07 (UTC)

Epic apparently moved the location of their logo that I set as the icon for the user desktop file; that's an easy fix, give me a sec

Sorry for doing this to ya, this file probably ain't even important lol:

Fixed; I swear, I checked and there shouldn't be anything else
