PKGBUILD tweaks

If you want to build with clang, add this part to cmake flags:

    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER='clang++' \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER='clang' \

If you want to use bundled fuzzylite:

    -DFORCE_BUNDLED_FL=ON \

If you want to use innoextract (system-wide installation won't work since vcmi has a temporary? fork of innoextract for now):

    -DENABLE_INNOEXTRACT=ON \

So, about the qt6 compilation... The upstream fix have been merged, however, since it was merged to a wrong branch it's not in a recent release. Hoping to see it in a next one. For now, I think I found out a dirty hack to force compile with qt5, have to live with it.

@michaldybczak The fix is not yet merged upstream, unfortunately. You can track the progress on this issue using the link in pinned post. It's scheduled to be merged somewhere before 1.6.0 release, but no exact schedule

Still can't compile the package in the latest version. The same issue with "translation/chinese.qm" path.

I think I was able to reproduce the issue in a clean docker container after some experiments. It seems to be caused by qt6 compilation for some reason

qt5-tools builds translation files into ${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}/build/launcher/translation/*.qm

But qt6-tools builds translation files into ${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}/build/launcher/*.qm which causes make install to fail

I don't know what enforces qt6 build on your machine, but I'm pretty sure it is the reason

I'll report this issue upstream

UPD

You can track this issue up here: https://github.com/vcmi/vcmi/issues/3522. It's said to be merged around the end of may. I think I'll change the dependencies to qt6 with the next release.

Thank you for your reports. I'll try to locate these problems tomorrow in a clean docker container

Have the same issue with chinese.qm

Hello, building with devtools works fine but you either need a local repo for fuzzylte or to pass it by command line

There is difference when building with devtools respect to dirty builds

@Gigas002 exactly the same issue with translation files using only makepkg. With clang as cxx compiler the same error happens. There are no translation dir in src/build/launcher directory.

Gigas002 commented on 2024-05-12 10:09 (UTC)

@A_Bart, @michaldybczak Can't reproduce your issue. Can you please try to build the package without helpers?

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/vcmi.git
cd vcmi
makepkg

@Crandel Adding clang should not replace the ccache. Here's how build func would look in this case:

build() {
  cd "${srcdir}/${pkgname}-${pkgver}"
  mkdir -p build && cd build
  cmake -B. -H.. \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX='/usr' \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH='/usr/lib/vcmi' \
    -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH_USE_LINK_PATH=TRUE \
    -DCMAKE_SKIP_RPATH='FALSE' \
    -DENABLE_TEST=OFF \
    -DFORCE_BUNDLED_FL=OFF \
    -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE='Release' \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER='ccache' \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER='ccache' \
    -DENABLE_INNOEXTRACT='FALSE' \
    -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER='clang++' \
    -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER='clang' \
    -Wno-dev
  make
}

Anyway, could you also try to build the package the above way? I just want to make sure it doesn't have something with cache or it's not paru-specific problem.
