After needing to rebuild for the new libvpx, no longer builds for me as src/gzdoom/src/common/audio/music/music.cpp can't find the EIntConfigKey enum value "zmusic_mod_preferredplayer" even though it's right there in src/gzdoom/bin/windows/zmusic/include/zmusic.h.

After some investigation I believe that <zmusic.h> may be getting pulled in from /usr/include and, the system header version doesn't have this entry in that enum. Both are using the same #include guard so it's a race to whichever version is included first. This header is also included as <zmusic.h> from some other headers that zmusic.cpp includes such as i_sound.h so even using the full path to zmusic.h where it's included in zmusic.cpp wasn't having an effect.

I was able to get past the build failure and get back into the game by changing the "#include <zmusic.h>" to "#include "../../../../bin/windows/zmusic/include/zmusic.h" in BOTH zmusic.cpp and i_sound.h.

(Specifically, I used yay --getpkgbuild; started building it with makepkg -si so it would clone the git repo, "cd src/gzdoom"; mimicked the steps in the PKGBUILD's build() manually, then ran "sudo make -C build install" as a quick fix for now)

@incans You have to simply rebuild gzdoom against the new version of libvpx.

I ran a system update today, then a reboot, and found gzdoom was unable to run with the error along the lines of- "Unable to find libvpx.so.9".

Sure enough, this version of libvpx is not present in /usr/lib. The current version is libvpx.so.11.0.1

I temporarily worked around the error by symlinking /usr/lib/libvpx.so.9 to the v11.0.1 library, but that's probab;y risky if there are breaking changes between the two versions.

If the GZDoom package depends on a specific version of libvpx, does it need to ship as part of the package, or otherwise dealt with as a dependency?

Can you please depend on virtual package sdl2 instead? Then one can choose sdl2 from the AUR or sdl2-compat from official repos. I am having issues linking with sdl2-compat.

This builds fine as is on powerpc64le and powerpc64 as well.

At the moment there is a problem building this package, likely a compatibility issue with sdl2-compat?

make[2]: *** [libraries/ZWidget/CMakeFiles/zwidget.dir/build.make:443: libraries/ZWidget/CMakeFiles/zwidget.dir/src/window/sdl2/sdl2displaywindow.cpp.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:521: libraries/ZWidget/CMakeFiles/zwidget.dir/all] Error 2

Update: With sdl2-compat updated to 2.30.52 the package builds now.

You might want to force disable -Wp,-D_GLIBCXX_ASSERTIONS in cxxflags for the build since it's default in makepkg.conf and causes crashes/performance loss in the game, just got done discussing this in https://github.com/ZDoom/gzdoom/issues/2656 and the devs advise against using assertions.
