Title: Steam and mesa-git
Post by: Charles Jacob Rothchild on 22 October 2021, 20:53:06
Hello I'm new to Artix. I've been trying to get some specific games to run on Artix but I'm having some issues. Some games require mesa-git such as Cyberpunk and I can't install this dependency. What can I do?

I've tried to install this package through AUR but I have this weird issue where I cant install anything through PKGBUILD.

Packages which end in -git are AUR packages. AUR isn't curated by, and therefore isn't supported by, Artix.

I suggest reporting to upstream.

The canonical (and quasi-supported) way of compiling/installing PKGBUILDs is with makepkg(1). There are a few helpers around, but I'd suggest avoiding GUI ones and using a console one like trizen or yaourt[ix] (my personal favourite).
