Forcing the dialog driver works, thanks

You can try $ SDL_FILE_DIALOG_DRIVER=zenity xemu with zenity installed.

You just remove the capabilities no? It's the same thing as # setcap -r /usr/bin/xemu.

@abouvier Not sure on security implications of this patch using systemd --user to workaround that xdg / filemanager issue some are having because of those setcap permissions edit: Sorry disregard, resolving on xemu git

I had the same issue:

mkvenv: Creating non-isolated virtual environment at 'pyvenv'

*** Ouch! ***

found no usable distlib, please install it 


==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
 -> error making: xemu-git-exit status 4
 -> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
xemu-git - exit status 4

Installing python-distlib fixes it.

Same error occurs when using makepkg. Paru uses the --noextract flag with makepkg, which causes that srcdir warning.

I really can't reproduce this error. Do you have modified any configuration related to makepkg?

Try to build with makepkg instead of paru.

And what is this? WARNING: Using existing $srcdir/ tree

@cubic_control I don't have this error. What have you done?! Post the full log somewhere maybe.
