@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).

I have downloaded the .zip source code from github manually and then I executed the Setup.sh for download the dependencies in Ubuntu.

Is there any problem running the Setup.sh in Ubuntu?

because I'm trying to compile in Arch and I have had compilation problems, when I execute makepkg within Arch all goes well until the log shows an error because UnrealBuildTool is looking for clang 9.0.1 inside UE4 folders (which exists) and not in my system.

I have installed clang 10 and 9.0.1 from AUR and still the same error. It seems that UnrealBuildTool don't see the compiler and clang is in my system and inside UE4 folders...

I don't know what to do, please help...

I can launch it from the terminal properly. On the wiki it says I can run it from the menu, but there is no entry there (I am on manjaro-gnome). It is not a big problem because I can use from terminal easily. I just curious because I might have done something wrong.

I found some .desktop files on '/share/application'. As in 'com.epicgames.UnrealEngine.desktop', 'com.unrealengine.UE4Editor.desktop' and 'com.epicgames.UnrealVersionSelector.desktop'but they are pointing to my var rather than my opt.

Updating it to opt filepath and making them able to run didn't work either.

Looking for a solution I found that could be some bug with gnome https://forum.manjaro.org/t/solved-cannot-launch-desktop-files/92331/14 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/glib2.0/+bug/378783

But so far, it only happened when I install this package from AUR. So I wonder what I should do to fix it.

I had no space to build it, but moving my /var to another mounting point helped to build it

Never mind I just fixed it lol,

if anyone else has the same issue make sure to do the testing ssh connection to add the ip and rsa key etc

(just reworded my last post)

I have setup SSH on my Github account and still doesn't detect it.

Shatur commented on 2020-06-05 07:54 (UTC)

@blenux, read the wiki about setup. I think that the problem in ssh configureation.

@Night, try Godot, it is very fast, easy to use and requires only 65 Mb of space.

Night commented on 2020-05-31 12:47 (UTC)

@Shatur, Daaaaaaamn! That really sucks! Was expecting it to be similar to my last build last year that was only ~50! :( Super sad I can't fit/use it anymore.
