Arch Linux User Repository

When I build this, the resulting package is missing the *.oso files under /usr/share/blender/2.79/scripts/addons/cycles/shader/ that the non-git package has.

I tried replacing the build function with the one from the non-git package, which uses the cmake file under build_files/cmake/config/blender_release.cmake, but then I get random compiler failures when building.

Anybody and idea how to fix this?

Appear to have solved the issue. Should anyone run into it themselves:

Edit the PKGBUILD in the build() section, in the cmake command add the following, or a variant of

-DCYCLES_CUDA_BINARIES_ARCH:STRING="sm_20;sm_21;sm_30;sm_35;sm_37;sm_50;sm_52;sm_60;sm_61"

I had to remove sm_20 and 21 before it would compile for me.

I believe I ran into something similar to the following error before. I can't remember how I eventually got around it...

[ 17%] Generating kernel_sm_20.cubin nvcc fatal : Value 'sm_20' is not defined for option 'gpu-architecture' make[2]: [intern/cycles/kernel/CMakeFiles/cycles_kernel_cuda.dir/build.make:255: intern/cycles/kernel/kernel_sm_20.cubin] Error 1 make[1]: [CMakeFiles/Makefile2:1465: intern/cycles/kernel/CMakeFiles/cycles_kernel_cuda.dir/all] Error 2

Any ideas? googling thus far has not been very much use. Perhaps it involves a CMAKE flag for makepkg, but I am uncertain...

Somewhat tangential to this package as it doesn't enable it but...
If you want openvdb with blender-git you need either to revert https://developer.blender.org/rB0d4e519b748c and use the lines from the blender package in community
export CFLAGS="${CFLAGS} -DOPENVDB_3_ABI_COMPATIBLE"
export CXXFLAGS="${CXXFLAGS} -DOPENVDB_3_ABI_COMPATIBLE"
Or
Recompile openvdb. The commits comments say you need openvdb with the below compile option
-DOPENVDB_ENABLE_3_ABI_COMPATIBLE=OFF
I did the recompile option which appears to work, haven't tested the revert option the above is just a guess at what is needed. Hopefully of use to someone.

@habys if you want JACK and SDL add:

-DWITH_JACK=ON \
-DWITH_SDL=ON \

into 'cmake' in PKGBBUILD.

Sorry, I meant SDL, rather than ALSA

Anyone only getting OpenAL for audio? Ideally there would also be JACK and ALSA

PKBUILD needs updating
change -DPYTHON_VERSION=3.5m \
to -DPYTHON_VERSION=3.6m \

Good catch!

Although the package name is blender-git, the name set by blender.desktop is blender-svn. Can you change this?
