You can build the last version of Beyond Compare v4 I packaged (4.4.7.28397) by doing this:

git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/bcompare.git/
cd bcompare
git checkout dcf8794f1301c9213558b2583a956c04cf2a2135
makepkg -crs

Since you have a license for v4, you might be interested in looking at the upgrade policy at https://www.scootersoftware.com/kb/upgradepolicy .

I hope it helps!

@Wesley_Chan: I'm trying to update the package to support i686 build as well. However, I have no longer any i686 PC in which to try. I'm planning to set up a i686 VM to cover this kind of situations in the future. This, however, it take me some time... In addition, I'm a KDE user, so I have no way to know where Thunar and GTK context menu files should be place. Any help is more than welcome. Thank you!

Dear @Musikolo, i686 source seems to be missing from the PKGBUILD. Nautilus and Thunar context menu support is also missing. Would you please fix it? Thanks. Since there is a "bcompare-beta" package, I think they should be conflicted with each other. https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=bcompare-beta It would be nice if you can merge them back. Cheers,

@vinibali: I have verified both dependencies. You are right in that qt4 is a required dependency, so I have added it to the depends entry. However, gtk2 is not a dependency because I have been able to run the bcompare without having gtk2 installed at all. If you have any case scenario in which it's needed, I would appreciate further details to re-evaluate. Thanks a million for your feedback! ;-)

Here's my version with libs in the right directory and the updated dependencies: https://gist.github.com/zrax/4d867a982ca7ee99e03a

4.1.x is out and now includes a 64-bit build

Hi everyone. I made a latest beta [here](https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/bcompare-beta) based on your script. Thank you and hope you find it useful.

service menus on KDE5 no longer work (for quite some time now). they used to work though.
