Current packages state (non-conflicting ones):

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)
  • DISABLE_ONEAPI=1 to skip intel Arc kernel build (require:intel-compute-runtime)
  • ENABLE_PYTHON_INSTALL=1 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.
  • DISABLE_MATERIALX=1 to skip MaterialX shaders.
  • 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)
  • CMAKE_FLAGS="xxx:yyy" to add extra cmake switches (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.

After uninstalling, git cloning to its own folder & makepkg -si, it resulted in the same error.

Uninstalled again, cleared the pkg cache and any leftover files, reinstalled using yay, it's working now? I might have missed something during the first reinstall. Oh well. Regardless, thanks.

@MirandaStreeter: can't reproduce the issue. My build looks fine.

ldd /usr/bin/blender-2.8|grep vdb

        libopenvdb.so.6.0 => /usr/lib/libopenvdb.so.6.0 (0x00007f6340265000)

Perhaps your aur helper has old cache. please build directly and check again.

@rigred After making the change, it compiles, But then when attempting to open, I'm seeing this error:

blender-2.8: error while loading shared libraries: libopenvdb.so.5.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

It looks like this may be related to openvdb having been updated to v6.0 recently? I'm not entirely sure if this is an issue upstream or if something was missed in the PKGBUILD.

rigred commented on 2018-12-29 18:32 (UTC)

For those wondering why it doesn't build anymore. Blender has moved the blender-2.8 branch into master as the active tree now. So in the PKGBUILD just change this line

source=('git://git.blender.org/blender.git#branch=blender-2.8' \

To this:

source=('git://git.blender.org/blender.git#branch=master' \

Until a 2.8 release is tagged/branched again this is the only solution.

Please update the master branch.

mowcat commented on 2018-12-23 03:13 (UTC)

The master branch is now blender 2.8.

wojtex commented on 2018-12-06 03:34 (UTC)

@bartus: I was unable to build Blender without llvm6-libs. But they had to fix it, because now it builds well.

bartus commented on 2018-12-02 15:22 (UTC)

@hugegameartgd: Can't help you, sorry. You should report bug upstream.

@nonoesimposible: When there is a straight beta release, for now we stays with rolling beta ;)...

nonoesimposible commented on 2018-12-02 01:08 (UTC)

Is Blender 2.8 Beta coming here soon?
