Re: Unreal-editor 5 not running

$ ls -lah /usr/bin/unreal-engine-5                                                       
/usr/bin/unreal-engine-5 -> /home/tom/Downloads/trizen-tom/unreal-engine/pkg/unreal-engine/usr/bin/unreal-engine-5.sh

fPackages are not supposed to do anything with user folders, something went very wrong with the build . trying to fix things by hand is probably a bad idea.

remove the current unreal-engine package , create a new folder under your home and do a fresh build there of latest version (5.2.0-2 atm) .

/tmp on archlinux is by default stored in memory using a tmpfs and limited to half your physical ram .
The simplest way to ensure  a build doesn't use /tmp (but other things can still use it) is to prepend the build command with TMPDIR=/path/to/some/userfolder-with-full-access-and-lots-of-space .

Disliking systemd intensely, but not satisfied with alternatives so focusing on taming systemd.

clean chroot building not flexible enough ?
Try clean chroot manager by graysky

Thank's @Lone_Wolf for the epic support so far - I'll give that a try
