Trying to install gzdoom on Manjaro but keep getting an error message. Any advice? (lemmy.world)

I've tried to install gzdoom both through the terminal and GUI and both times it returns the same error: _==> ERROR: A failure occurred in prepare()._

The line of code before that says this: /var/tmp/pamac-build-[user]/zmusic/PKGBUILD: line 20: patch: command not found

I go to that file, open it in Mousepad and that specific line says this: patch -i "$srcdir"/0001-Use-correct-soundfont-path.patch -p 1

I go to that patch file and only mentions the file path for Ubuntu. I know that this makes me really dumb but I really help with this. Thanks in advance.

Install the "patch" package with pacman -S patch and try again.

Tried it. Everything was good until it returned a couple of errors.

First:

CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message): Could NOT find PkgConfig (missing: PKG_CONFIG_EXECUTABLE) Call Stack (most recent call first): /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:600 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE) /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPkgConfig.cmake:99 (find_package_handle_standard_args) thirdparty/fluidsynth/src/CMakeLists.txt:157 (find_package)

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build(). Aborting... -> Failed to install layer, rolling up to next layer.error:error making: zmusic - exit status 4

Second: Same as the first one

Third:

==> ERROR: Could not resolve all dependencies. -> error making: gzdoom-exit status 8 -> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required: zmusic - exit status 4 gzdoom - exit status

Looks like you need to manually install pkgbuild (mkpkg? Don't remember off hand) & zmusic.
