Update to my comment from the 17th of October 2025: Had to reinstall avogadro bc I deleted my build directory. Had problems bc the guide cited there uses qt5 but a package (JKQTPlotter) only exists for qt6 (or at least I only found qt6 versions). The fix is quite easy. Just build avogadro with qt6 instead of qt5. Worked like a charm.

-> No AUR package found for avogadrolibs-qt5 -> could not find all required packages: avogadrolibs-qt5

I'm new to Arch Linux and therefore had real trouble trying to install avogadro or avogadro2 (I tried both yay and the git clone path for avogadroapp and avogadro2, tried to install from source and so on). Tried finding online help in some forums. Nothing helped. If you are in the same situation, look at this guide: https://two.avogadro.cc/develop/build.html. Now I have a working installation of avogadro2 on my laptop and the guide is really easy to follow. (No hate on the package here. Just thought that many people will inevitably land here trying to install avogadro and this is to help those)

Please add all direct dependencies to depends array: gcc-libs, avogadrolibs, molequeue, qt5-base and glibc.

please don't flag it as out of date, current tag is 1.98.1, a bit confused

Just jumping in to express my gratitude that the duplicate avogadro2 package got removed.
We use Avogadro quite a bit in popular science activities and introductory chemoinformatics education. The annoying issue we have is frequent segfaults when drawing "impossible" bonds. Is anybody else experiencing this? Is there a chance it can get fixed? I would look into it myself and submit a patch, but I am not that familiar with Qt and VTK so it would be great if somebody else can help with it.
