Valve's Proton 6.3-1 Adds Support for More Games, Improves PlayStation 5 Controller Support By Marius Nestor on April 07, 2021, 20:30 Permalink Comments (0) This is a major release and the first in the 6.x series.
The idle air control valve — also known as the 'idle speed control valve' — regulates the idle speed of your engine. This is controlled by the engine's computer. Sometimes parts go bad, which results in your car idling strangely or stalling. Check to see if your idle control valve is functioning properly before attempting to replace it.

Updated vkd3d-proton to v2.2. Updated FAudio to 21.03.05. Update wine-mono to 6.1.1. Previously in Experimental: Improvements for non-US keyboard layouts. Previously in Experimental: Improved video support. You may see test pattern videos. How it Works Proton Video.

Project Proton is a tool developed by Valve Software which allows Windows games to run on Linux through Steam. The project was launched in 2018 as a forked version of WINE with some additional features such as DirectX over Vulkan. According to ProtonDB a fan page which reports game compatibility there are now over 6,500 games which work flawlessly without any modifications on Linux.
This is an amazing achievement for the Linux gaming community and outshines the work of any porting company, at the current rate over 100 games are gaining complete compatibility each month and the average quality of games has also increased. Out of the top 1000 Steam games 67% run perfectly after minor tweaks.

This is nice; it makes it all the more tempting to shift over to Linux fulltime, rather than just for situational use (as a media server/PiHole), and gives Linux a nice shot in the arm for those who want more privacy/control but still want to game.

I haven't found a solution to this for now... I cannot compile it due to 'wine_dlsym' I think it is from upstream after updating wine-valve.

EDIT: proton-git still have this problem... I submitted an issue on Github:https://github.com/ValveSoftware/Proton/issues/4108

To the people getting the wine/wined3d-interop.h: No such file or directorythe 4.17 proton requires a wine-valve version >=4.16, install wine-valve-git instead.

Update:
After some consideration, because new versions of proton require code that has not been released as a stable version yet any kind of 'stable' package for wine-valve is going to be hell to maintain and always lagging slightly behind.

If anyone wants to continue a stable package despite this, I've disowned the package so you're welcome to give it a shot, but I'd advise users to just install wine-valve-git instead.

(No changes to the proton PKGBUILD necessary).

This is in an early state right now. vrclient_x64 needs the custom bundled version of wine, which I plan to make another package for. For now all that's packaged is lsteamclient.

I'm getting this error when installing. Can you please help me?

heavysink commented on 2020-12-10 19:20

@ynikitenko update is on the way. I think you just ask each game to use custom proton and point it to the installed proton.

ynikitenko commented on 2020-12-10 18:21

Could you please update the package? The most recent version is proton-5.13-4, and it is the only one that supports Cyberpunk 2077 (which was released today). Do I understand right that there is no 'proton' executable, and just several libraries and I have to use steam to run a game?

Sorry everyone, I forgot to change the version number to trigger rebuild at lilac. The lilac build bot will automatically update the version number tonight.

Exactly. I think I know how to fix the problem and I'm gonna test it, it's just an undefined reference error.

Edit: yep, as I suspected, the patch should be removed to let it build properly. I'm 99% that having dlopen instead of wine_dlopen, etc is completely unnecessary. I'll do some testing

Edit2: yeah there's no reason for the patch. dlopen, dlsym aren't deprecated in Wine anymore iirc? but it does work sooo

Yeah, it makes no sense to build (and ship) 5.0.9 if PKGBUILD states 5.1.13b as the version, so it's not only out-of-date but the package itself is broken. Either make pkgver 5.0.9 or provide a new version.

@xiretza the issue is in the PKGBUILD itself. It sources $_pkgver to download the source, which is still set to 5.0-9. .SRCINFO is autogenerated. Unless you have modified the PKGBUILD yourself, what you are building fine in a clean chroot is in fact the sources for 5.0-9

xiretza commented on 2020-10-19 11:46

Package builds fine in a clean chroot here, maintainer simply forgot to update the source = in .SRCINFO, which causes the aurweb interface to show the old URL under 'Sources'.

loathingkernel commented on 2020-10-19 07:57

@sperg512 Then what is the reasoning behind updating the version number?
