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!

@Shura: Could you please confirm whether the following PKGBUILD works for you? Unfortunately, I don't have an i686 computer that I can use to test it out. - http://pastebin.com/ipViuB54 Please, let me know as soon as possible. If everything is OK, I'll submit an update. Thanks for your contribution!

Version 4 is beta, not final. Unflagging.

Your PKGBUILD doesn't work on i686 installations.

Thanks for packaging this! Great product.

Ok, I was just missing some 32bit libs from multilib.

@Musikolo Hello, I have exactely the same error as @oman002 when run from the command line. x86_64 as well. I did follow your advice and used makepkg instead of yaourt, to no avail.

@oman002: I do have this file since it is part of the package. Are you sure you built the package fine with no errors? You should have exactly these files: http://pastebin.com/fF2AUp7c If you used yaourt to build the package, try using makepkg instead. Regards.

When I run bcompare on my x86_64 system I get: /usr/bin/bcompare: /usr/lib32/beyondcompare/BCompare: No such file or directory /usr/lib32/beyondcompare/BCompare does exist. Any ideas?
