Bump to version 3026-2. I've made some cleanups in the PKGBUILD. @Cravix: Thanks for the words :) (for previous comment). As for vcmibuilder and your problem, the file AdRollvr1366.pcx is from core.zip archive. You can download it manually, link is included in the beginning of Preparation Section: http://wiki.vcmi.eu/index.php?title=Installation_on_Linux#Preparing_data or you can do this automatically by using --download option like this: vcmibuilder --data /path/to/heroes3/data --download It will download and extract both missing archive (that is core.zip and wog.zip). The script will create a new directory named vcmi where will be prepared data files. Summary (short answer). 1. Create temporary directory temp: mkdir temp && cd temp 2. Execute vcmibuilder script with appropriate options: vcmibuilder --data /path/to/heroes3/data --download 3. Copy data files to /usr/share/vcmi: cp -RTu vcmi /usr/share/vcmi

Hello, I'm a new maintainer of the vcmi-svn package. I've prepared a new PKGBUILD. I've made the following changes: - moved from autotools to cmake (cmake is now the main build system for vcmi) - the package contain a new official script called vcmibuilder which help preparing data files - by default the vcmi installation root directory is /usr, but it can be changed by using the _installation_dir variable in the PKGBUILD - a short post install message that contain information about preparing data files (which is also included below) Vcmi is a game engine and it not contain data files (like graphics or sounds). That why you have to have a original copy of Heroes of Might and Magic 3. You can prepare the data files using the earlier mentioning vcmibuilder script or you can do this manually. Please follow the instructions from this website: http://wiki.vcmi.eu/index.php?title=Installation_on_Linux#Preparing_data I've built vcmi successfully in clean chroot from the current revision (3026) and successfully prepared data files using the vcmibuilder script. If you have any problems or advices about package, please feel free and leave here a comment. Below is included a bunch of useful links about vcmi: - (the official website) http://forum.vcmi.eu/portal.php - (vcmi forum) http://forum.vcmi.eu/ - (vcmi bug tracker) http://bugs.vcmi.eu/my_view_page.php - (timeline of svn) http://sourceforge.net/apps/trac/vcmi/timeline Best regards, Raziel23

I got the same error too. I'm definitly no shell-script expert but it probably occurs in the shell script "configure" in the main folder between line 17301 and 17346. Probably the script checks for the library in the wrong places. The right place would be something like "/usr/lib/ffmpeg-compat/libavformat.so" or "/usr/include/ffmpeg-compat/libavformat" (I don't know which file it tries to find). Have one of you already got an account on http://forum.vcmi.eu/index.php and could descripe that problem there?

checking for av_open_input_file in -lavformat... no configure: error: FFMpeg avformat library not found. Please install it. seems it could not be compiled again:/ any ideas here?

I'm going to get this working, don't worry. If anyone know how to get past the issue with libavformat, do share(otherwise I'll just cheat or something)

@josephgbr: haha:-) looking forward to that~ and, a notice for those who want to install it: please change "heroes3_path" to the homm3 path in PKGBUILD before makepkg.

rafaelff commented on 2012-06-19 18:42 (UTC)

@Cravix: yeah, yeah, that black magic :) Good luck! I'm working on a rewrite of this PKGBUILD. When/if I have it working, I'll let you know.
