Arch Linux PKGBUILD for PPSSPP with Qt UI

[m45t3r]

I created a PKGBUILD for Arch Linux users that compiles PPSSPP from source with Qt UI. So this should offer a better user experience for those who use Arch than using the SDL UI (that was the only option offered on AUR before), even if the Qt UI is still somewhat simple (at least it is simpler than the current Windows UI).

The compile path is unoptimal btw: it firstly clone everything (including the submodules), then compiles the SDL version and after all that it compiles the Qt version, and only installs the Qt UI, discarding the SDL version. Edit: fixed, now it only compiles the Qt version, thanks xsacha .

The clone part is especially bad, since it always clone all submodules (I don't know why, I thought it would only do a update). And every asset is build in on binary, but I think this is the way it works anyway.

But yeah, it works, as you can see below:


It includes a custom made .desktop file (that I can upstream if there is interest) and a icon so it shows on the menu.
