Note: This is a non-conflicting version of blender-git package with GPU architecture detected at build time.
This package is also hosted on GitHub.
Use env vars to control the build process:
  • DISABLE_CUDA=1 to skip cuda kernel build (cycles+compositor+optix,requires:cuda)
  • DISABLE_HIP=1 to skip amdgpu kernel build (requires:hip-runtime-amd)
  • ENABLE_PYTHON_INSTALL include bundled python (default:off)
  • DISABLE_NINJA=1 to switch the build system to make (default:ninja)
  • DISABLE_OPTIX=1 to skip Optix device build.
  • DISABLE_DRACO=1 to skip gltf exporter draco mesh compression extension.
  • FRAGMENT="#{commit,tag,branch}=..." for making bisect build.
  • CUDA_ARCH="sm_xx sm_yy" to build for a specific Cuda arch, supports multiple values.
  • HIP_ARCH="gfx900 gfx1103" to build for a specific amdgpu arch, supports multiple values.
  • MAKEFLAGS="xxx" to override default make flags (check oom-killer disclaimer below)
  • MAKEFLAGS="xxx:yyy" to override default make flags (colon-separated list)
Usage cases:
  • export DISABLE_CUDA=1 before build
  • DISABLE_CUDA=1 ~your-aur-helper~
  • makepkg DISABLE_CUDA=1
  • yay -S blender-develop-git --mflags "DISABLE_CUDA=1 DISABLE_HIP=1"
Yay users warning:

Since yay relies solely on aur-rpc to solve dependencies instead of calling makepkg --sync it can't follow dependencies logic defined in PKGBUILD. That's why it's up to the user to provide dependencies to enable desired features. Optional features includes cuda/optix/usd.

tl;dr; If you want to prebuild cycles kernels, you have to install CUDA beforehand. If you don't have CUDA installed, PKGBUILD will fail unless you disable cuda with DISABLE_CUDA=1, same for optix and usd.

Out of memory killer.

You may use ninja-mem to prevent oom-killer when building on system with low memory to core ratio.

To activate use MAKEFLAGS+=" -m75" where 75 is the percentage upper threshold of memory usage when new build jobs is postponed.

Or simply lower the make jobs count in "MAKEFLAGS" variable, but this will prolong your build process.

@berilac: You have some point here. I can go two ways here: make it non-conflicting with blender-git by renaming /usr/share/bledner/2.83/, or explicitly add blender-git as conflict...

I think I'll choice the later, as having both blender-git and blender-2.8-git` seems redundant to me. 69ad5501effd

Am I right in saying that this package conflicts with blender-git (given it's not in the pinned list)? (https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/blender-git/)

Also, blender-git is now compiling 2.83, so is fighting over ownership of /usr/share/blender/2.83

Thanks, it works now again. But please change this in PKGBUILD:

-    chmod 444 "$pkgdir/usr/share/blender/${_suffix}/scripts/addons/cycles/lib/*"
+    chmod 444 -R "$pkgdir/usr/share/blender/${_suffix}/scripts/addons/cycles/lib/"

Without this patch I got an error that file is not found.

I currently have this issue when compiling: https://github.com/bartoszek/AUR-blender-2.8-git/issues/7

bartus commented on 2020-02-20 11:26 (UTC)

Embree and USD support has been enabled in the PKGBUILD.

@Canseco: Already working on it, there's some problem with linking binaries boost_python27 is missing, Here's a wip repo.

Canseco commented on 2020-02-19 19:10 (UTC)

Since Blender 2.82 there's a new dependency, Universal Scene Description. Could it be possible to add this in the future?

Now we have again the 'multiple versions of interest' situation as of recently:

  • 2.81 stable
  • 2.82 beta
  • 2.83 alpha

Might it be possible to get packages set up such that all of these can be installed concurrently?
