Prebuilt binary can be found at my personal repo

This package will not be updated very frequently. But feel free to flag it out of date when there is a new release.

Currently, the blender extension and desktop entry do not work as some python packages are missing.

some patches are updated, please make a clean build

Did not compile for me having cgal-git installed. Installed cgal instead and it worked.

Fix needed due to too recent boost

This needs to be updated to at least 2506300812. Specifically https://github.com/IfcOpenShell/IfcOpenShell/commit/d7cf803fdfb38df1e3eb37879cc04f733339b704 is necessary for the shared libraries to not be missing symbols.

@Beinje 8GB is far from enough, I think 32GB should be OK.

When I try to install the aur package yay -S ifcopenshell, I get an out of memory error everytime and the installation process fails. I have 8GB of RAM, isn't it enough for this package ? Anyone ever face the same issue ?

001-libsvgfill.patch file has to be updated. The following version works:

@alef07 this issue has been fixed by upstream in newer version. But I can't build it either due to some errors caused by newer cgal(cgal-6.0)

alef07 commented on 2024-10-07 20:24 (UTC)

Hi, I just tried to install ifcopenshell from the AUR repository but I get this error during the compilation: "error: « mt19937 » is not a member of « boost »; would you like to use « std::mt19937 »"? Any idea how to solve this issue? Thanks

Pinky commented on 2024-08-26 18:23 (UTC)

Btw missing dependency on sz (the build fails if this library is not installed).

With this library and after upgrade to v0.7.0 (and few other changes in PKGBUIL it builds.
