[Arch Linux] PKGBUILD

It works on my machine, but I would like for it to be tested by other Arch users before submitting it to Arch User Repository (AUR). I know there are some Arch users here so any help would be greatly appreciated!

The package builds the latest Git revision from zinnschlag's repository. A PKGBUILD for a "stable" OpenMW is currently available on AUR but is hopelessly outdated and no longer maintained. (It builds OpenMW 0.0.6!)

You can find a .tar.gz containing the PKGBUILD and .install file here:

http://www.mediafire.com/file/qdqhg6bz2 ... 104.tar.gz

For the people who would like to test this PKGBUILD but do not know how to make a package (which I can't imagine ;) ) Look here:

https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Makepkg


Currently OpenMW gets installed to /opt/openmw and the directory permissions are set to 777. I don't know if this is a good idea or not. Also, if the openmw executable is not started with /opt/openmw as PWD, Ogre will give an error whilst selecting a renderer. I guess this is because of plugins.cfg missing. It would be nice if OpenMW searched its installation directory for the configuration files instead of looking in the current working directory.

Regards,
pvdk

PS: I'm happy to report that OpenMW works with nouveau-dri/Gallium3D as gfx drivers!

Is there a default upload location for this kind of package (like Ubuntu ppa)? If yes, we could simply refer to it in the release posting. If not, we will include the package with the other packages.

btw. what you have pulled from github is the 0.9.0 release and it should be named as such.

Yeah, the AUR. You can find it here: http://aur.archlinux.org/
Tools like yaourt download and compile packages automagically from the AUR, really easy and saves alot of dependency downloading and configuring. Added value is the fact that you can uninstall AUR packages just like packages from the "normal" repositories.

The PKGBUILD just looks for the latest Git revision using the date specified by the pkgver variable. It happens to be the 0.9.0 release for now but I'd like to keep this package name (openmw-git) for later revisions. That way I can edit the PKGBUILD version without uploading a new package to the AUR. Just search for -git in AUR to see what I mean.

These things in particular:
if [ -d ${_gitname} ] ; then
cd ${_gitname} && git pull origin && git submodule init && git submodule update
Don't use submodule init when you are updating, don't use &&. It's better to put it on a new line.
git clone ${_gitroot} ${_gitname} && git submodule init && git submodule update
It's better to use git submodule update --init instead of
git submodule init && git submodule update
Don't use &&.
cmake ../${_gitname} \
-DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt
make
just use
cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/opt
make


It's less ugly and less error prone.

Everything else works fine for me.
Also you should claim the package at AUR before someone else does :)
pvdk wrote: Thanks fallenwizard! I didn't know you could do git submodule update and init with one command. Also, the other points you make are valid, I will edit the PKGBUILD. Happy it works for you too.

I forgot my AUR username but not my password. There's no way to retrieve your username at AUR so I have to figure something out before claiming openmw-git.

Regards.

I use this method to create CMakeFiles etc. in the folder /build. With your method build fails with "You need to run this command from the top-level directory" etc. I saw this method in other PKGBUILDS, not my own idea :P

Could you please test this one fallenwizard? I removed some of the dependencies and modified the git commands.

will test out your script when i play around with my setup.
Guest wrote: Ah yes, I forgot about the build folder. Then your cmake solution was fine.
fallenwizard wrote: Forgot to log in :/

Ok. You did a little mistake with the git submodule update --init command.
It doesn't work because you were not inside the openmw folder. I fixed that with this:
cd ${_gitname}
git submodule update --init
cd ${srcdir}
Everything else worked perfectly.

Thanks. Do you have a fresh install of Arch? If that's the case it would be ideal for testing. You can test my package by installing yaourt and typing this:

Code: Select all

yaourt -Sy openmw-git
I've recovered my username and claimed openmw-git: it is now in AUR. You can find it here:
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=45102

Please vote for it there.

Happy to have another Arch user around!

pvdk.

Forgot to refresh this page before posting, missed your message.
Is this correct now? Can't test it because I'm working on a PKGBUILD for openmw 0.08 and that one needs an older version of Ogre.

Code: Select all

  else
    cd ${srcdir}
    git clone ${_gitroot} ${_gitname}
    cd ${_gitname}
    git submodule update --init
    cd ${srcdir}

In an empty directory try:
$ A='a b c'
$ mkdir "$A"
$ ls -F
a b c/
$ rmdir a\ b\ c/
$ mkdir ${A}
$ ls -F
a/ b/ c/
$
The latter is not what you intended.

Personally I think the {} should not be used if you do not need any of their features (e.g., array indexing, string replace,...) instead if you are not desperate for space you always should use "".

I am running it over ethernet and i can ping to google. but whenever i try to wget something it can't(say waiting for http request or whatever until i terminate the process). so i can't use pacman to update or to get new packages.

i have looked all over every forum for this problem but to can't find anything.
perhaps i should stick to ubuntu...

Maybe you're suffering from the TCP window scaling issue, as ICMP (ping) works but TCP/UDP does not. Please look here:

No. Only boost-libs but afaik boost-libs depends on boost.
depends=('boost-libs' 'freeimage' 'freetype2' 'libxaw' 'libxrandr'
'nvidia-cg-toolkit' 'mesa' 'zziplib' 'ois')

Boost-libs does not depend on Boost, so I will change my PKGBUILD.

Another thing: I'm the maintainer of openmw in AUR now and I updated it to version 0.08. Thanks Andrew M. (whoever you are) for disowning the package. That package can use some testing too. (hint, hint ;) )

with a fresh install of Arch + GDM + Nvidia. and base-devel is installed.
thoughts?

it was my router would you believe that was causing the problem before. windows machine was working perfectly. graaa.

Edit:
ap0 beat me to it :) Have a look here: should not happen on a fresh install but who knows:
https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=107372

Hmm you're also missing some libraries which are required by gcc. Somehow something got messed up. Try installing gcc manually.

It is not the whole story, but it is a good starting point that covers most cases:
- use 'abc' (single quotes) when you DO NOT want any special meaning from the quoted characters. You should use this one in any string where you do not expect any transformation or changing. (e.g., '$A' is indeed $A even if A is a variable.)

- use "abc" (double quotes) when you need to protect the spaces, but you also need the meaning of $ for variables, `` for replacing or {} for their special meaning. (e.g., a way to put a full path in a variable is A="`readlink -e relative/path`")

- use {abc} (curly brackets) when you need one of their special meaning; see man bash. Most often you also need also the double quotes to protect spaces. (e.g., A='aa bb cc' /bin/echo "${A//a/d}" will output dd bb cc.)
