Can someone help me get .91 engine on Arch Linux 64bit?

So, I'm currently running Arch Linux 64 bit, and I can't figure out how to get the .91 engine so I can play zero-K. Arch is bleeding edge, so it currently has .94 in the repos, with no realistic way to roll back. I tried compiling .91 from the springrts source code, and got it to compile, but it segfaults on start.

someone on this thread: http://zero-k.info/Forum/Thread/4713
linked me a compiled .91 build of spring, but it didn't start due to this issue (as explained by lvica)

quote: You see, spring has many dependencies, like libglew, libicu, libboost (almost everything boost related in general), and so on. It's okay if they are not too new, to launch both 94.1 and 91. But if they are the latest versions, spring 91 may not launch complaining regarding not found libraries...

i don't think there's a static build of .91 anywhere. Does anyone have a way to get .91 on a bleeding edge linux system?

I found that I could get it compiled fine with:
build-essential cmake cmake-gui git python-all-dev libglew-dev libsdl-dev libdevil-dev libopenal-dev libogg-dev libvorbis-dev libfreetype6-dev p7zip-full libxcursor-dev libboost-thread-dev libboost-regex-dev libboost-system-dev libboost-program-options-dev libboost-signals-dev

Download the source for 91.0 and unpack it into an empty directory.

Navigate into the directory you unpacked the source into in a terminal and run:
cmake .

Let that finish and then run:
make

When that is done, run:
sudo make install

That is how I did it on my Xubuntu 12.10 system, it may or may not work equally well on Arch (obviously replacing the Ubuntu commands with Arch commands, if any Ubuntu specific commands are used here). Theoretically it should work on Arch, but it may not. Post your terminal output if you run into trouble with it.

When I started writing that your post was not there. Also, I am not familiar with Arch packages and didn't know about such websites.

Arch doesn't have most of these dependencies in the repro.

BTW: did you got map texture in 94.1 to work?

I just tried burps pkgbuild and got it to compile! Note - you forgot to include the "patch" program in your PKGBUILD dependencies.

pacman -Syu patch

was needed. I got it to install after deleting a defunct old spring binary from /usr/local/bin that had lodged itself there from a previous compile attempt. It starts without segfaults now. I'll try out graphics performance tommorow.

patch is part of the base-devel group which is an implied dependency in every PKGBUILD so you should install that group btw.

I gave it up, since new engine is not in Ubuntu repository and "static" builds of 91 dont work on 13.10 im playing ZK on Windows half a year and still hoping that we will switch at least this year.

the only thing stopping compatibility for me is this crash issue:

Has anyone seen that before?
