The comment from dongfengweixiao mentioning a specific "build fail" doesn't belong to this PKGBUILD, but at most (I didn't encountered it) to FreeCAD repo for a passed version of the weekly build. (weekly builds are a bit more stable than a random sampled chekout of master as in freecad-git package, but don't expect the stability in all sense of FreeCFAD releases. To remark this package is like a git package, it checks out the current last weekly tagged source from https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD.git#tag=$tag computed during makepkg by git tag -l weekly\*|tail -1

build fail. <class 'FileNotFoundError'>: [Errno 2] 没有那个文件或目录: '/usr/share/freecad/Mod/BIM/Presets/ifc_contexts_IFC4.json'

find -name ifc_contexts_IFC4.json
./src/FreeCAD/src/Mod/BIM/Presets/ifc_contexts_IFC4.json
./src/build-makepkg/usr/share/freecad/Mod/BIM/Presets/ifc_contexts_IFC4.json

freecad-weekly builds efficiently automatically taking the last week tagged version in git (makepkg will ignore the version the package was published and when built select and checkout the current last weekly tagged source), so the user or developer can build from sources incrementally between versions at the last weekly-stable development version of FreeCAD (by keeping a 2.8Gb growing copy of the repository possibly in common with ../freecad-git as the build looks for ../freecad-git/FreeCAD and links to it if present).
