I'm not having much luck getting the latest version compiled as per the issue github issue I posted earlier. Hopefully someone more capable can figure this out - if not I'll try again when I have more time

I'll keep brlcad-bin up to date in the meantime - if anyone wants to pick up where I left off you can find the WIP at https://github.com/envolution/aur/tree/main/nomaintain/nobuild/brlcad

@ejno, it's now fixed upstream in the git version as my fix got merged, so next release you can take the patch out :)

@jade1: Updated. Thanks for the patch!

Currently does not build. Here's a patch that fixes it:

@ejno thanks. I use a proxy solved the problem. (you know the gfw)

@ljj038: If you're behind a proxy, try this: https://subversion.apache.org/faq.html#proxy

svn: E175002: REPORT request on '/p/brlcad/code/!svn/me' failed

Package broken! Compilation gives me an error:

STATUS: Performing Test HAVE_DECL_DAEMON  
STATUS: Performing Test HAVE_DECL_DAEMON - Failed
STATUS: Performing Test HAVE_WORKING_DAEMON_FUNCTION
STATUS: Performing Test HAVE_WORKING_DAEMON_FUNCTION - Failed
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:2712 (CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS):
  Unknown CMake command "CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS".

EDIT: I fixed (here is how)[1] the above issue but brlcad still does not start

[1] https://bit.ly/2HbLRwd

brlcad will tab-complete, but does not run after installing.

[ctag@comp ~]$ brlcad
brlcad         brlcad-config  
[ctag@comp ~]$ brlcad
bash: brlcad: command not found

Edit: Ok, I just learned that the ui is separated from brlcad. Running /opt/brlcad/bin/mged produces a flickering screen that I can't use. Running /opt/brlcad/bin/archer seems to work!
