If the check fails there is little I can do about it as it most likely needs to be fixed upstream, in such cases report those upstream (maybe wait a day or two as sometimes it's quickly solved upstream) or skip the check with makepkg --nocheck if you don't care about the functionality that is being reported as failing in the check.

Hi, I have problem with build. More precisely with cmake configure fails on VTK/HDF5. Any ideas what could be wrong?

...
-- VTK components: CommonCore;CommonDataModel;FiltersVerdict;IOXML;FiltersCore;FiltersGeneral;IOLegacy;FiltersExtraction;FiltersSources;FiltersGeometry;IOMPIParallel;ParallelMPI;hdf5;FiltersParallelDIY2;RenderingCore;InteractionStyle;RenderingFreeType;RenderingOpenGL2
-- Found JsonCpp: /usr/lib/libjsoncpp.so (found suitable version "1.9.6", minimum required is "0.7.0")
CMake Error at /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:227 (message):
  Could NOT find HDF5 (missing: HDF5_HL_LIBRARIES) (found version "1.14.6")
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  /usr/share/cmake/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:591 (_FPHSA_FAILURE_MESSAGE)
  /usr/lib/cmake/vtk/patches/99/FindHDF5.cmake:1006 (find_package_handle_standard_args)
  /usr/lib/cmake/vtk/VTK-vtk-module-find-packages.cmake:1014 (find_package)
  /usr/lib/cmake/vtk/vtk-config.cmake:170 (include)
  cMake/FreeCAD_Helpers/SetupSalomeSMESH.cmake:59 (find_package)
  CMakeLists.txt:94 (SetupSalomeSMESH)

It looks like HDF5_HL_LIBRARIES is not being set for some reason...

@adrianinsaval @rbachl: missing pcl, pybind11 from the depends[] array; won't build with cmake>=4.0 without the -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 flag; freecad-thumbnailer is now installed in /usr/share/freecad/bin and fcinfo is now correctly installed in /usr/bin: http://0x0.st/8f01.diff

CMake Error at cMake/FreeCAD_Helpers/SetupPCL.cmake:11 (find_package): By not providing "FindPCL.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "PCL", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "PCL" with any of the following names:

PCLConfig.cmake
pcl-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "PCL" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "PCL_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "PCL" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed. Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:82 (SetupPCL)

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred! ==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().

@random-archer

I just ran the build with your PKGBUILD.

The build does complete, but launching freecad fails.

I added an issue with log output on your github.

Here is an updated working config:

@random-archer AUR packages should not have ccache. It is set up by users in makepkg.conf.

As of 2025-03-17, there are missing make dependencies:

bartus commented on 2025-01-25 14:45 (UTC)

libspnav is now required in makedepnds

Otherwise, there's a linking error with missing symbols in libFreeCADGui.so

For quite some time now using freeecad-git has a problem.

It builds fine. But there are issues with Qt6 in FreeCAD.

Some are visual, like panel labels having '&' some where in the name, for example &Task or Python C&onsole.

But Task panel goes into a "zombie" state after almost any error is reported. It won't return to normal (for instance actually displaying the task view) until a restart or (and only sometimes) after the file is saved. When Task view is zombie'd if a dialog that requires an Ok/Cancel to go away is hidden can't have any interaction, thus FreeCAD is basically unusable until restart.

The weekly appimage works as expected.

If FC with Qt6 is not to be resolved for the foreseeable future, maybe freecad-git needs to be suspended, or at least noted it will build, but usability is questionable in the AUR description.

Maybe the package name can get a rename to 1.1.0-dev or something instead of 0.22.xxx ?
