00:00what's up everyone if I try to install a dosbox X which is an improved version

00:05of dosbox on Arch Linux from the AUR I get the error that I'm gonna show you

00:13now which proves that it fails to compile since it's compiling from source

00:19as you can see the package failed to compile such thing often happens

00:36especially with the source based packages one of the solutions may be changing the

00:45package build script before installing it and it will help compile successfully

00:51however it may not be possible and may not solve the problem another another

00:56possible solution is to find the package with the suffix bin at the end in our

01:03case it's yay-s dosbox-x-bin if I'm not mistaken in my case I cannot find it with

01:14this name I believe I looked for it in aur.archlinux.org looking for in the place

01:21where you look for the packages I still cannot find it I looked for dosbox-x

01:29and the chaotic AUR which is similar repository to AUR but with less packages

01:36the different thing between the packages and the AUR and the packages in the chaotic

01:41AUR are mostly compiled and in the form of binary packages they can simply be

01:50installed right away to have the chaotic AUR installed on your system you need to

01:59run a few commands as you're gonna see like this one

02:14like this password

02:17okay second command is this one simply clicking it copies it into your clipboard

02:37okay and then this command

02:47here is the result of looking for dosbox-x I see no dosbox-x- bin

03:09here press y and enter

03:17y again and enter

03:26and then

03:28we should go to the next command which should be

03:31this one

04:53using the native method without the need for any
