This package is also hosted on GitHub.
Use env vars to control build process:
  • DISABLE_OPENCL=1 to skip opencl kernel build (yields DISABLE_CUDA=1)
  • DISABLE_CUDA=1 to skip cuda kernel build.
Usage cases:
  • export DISABLE_CUDA=1 before build
  • DISABLE_CUDA=1 ~your-aur-helper~
  • makepkg DISABLE_CUDA=1
  • yay -S blender-2.8-git --mflags "DISABLE_CUDA=1"

@howetuft: Can Conan symlink the libs instead of creating copies? Currently we have each lib triplicated in /usr/lib/luxcorerender/lib (with symliks the package would shed ~500MB)

$du -ahcd1 /usr/lib/luxcorerender/lib
776M    .
101M    ./libnvrtc.alt.so.12.8.61
101M    ./libnvrtc.alt.so.12
101M    ./libnvrtc.alt.so
100M    ./libnvrtc.so.12.8.61
100M    ./libnvrtc.so.12
100M    ./libnvrtc.so
90M     ./libluxcore.so
49M     ./libOpenImageDenoise_core.so.2.3.1
6.1M    ./libnvrtc-builtins.so.12.8.61

@Bartus No problem, let's say this has never existed. Once the build dependencies (gcc, gh etc.) have been installed, the build should simply be: make deps && make

The make command here is a wrapper around elaborated build commands:

  • First make (make deps) will download and install binaries dependencies, compiled beforehand from sources by LuxCore in a GLIBC_2_28 environment.
  • Second make (make) will trigger CMake (config, build and install).

The result will be found in out/Install/Release. Executables are in ./bin and libs are in ./lib. RPATH are tweaked in the executables to find the libs in that location.

My recommendation would be to install ./bin and ./lib in an /opt/luxcore directory, to avoid version conflicts with Arch libs.

@bartus I tested your revised PKGBUILD (from the diff you posted), and I got it to compile only after adding onetbb to the chroot. (I haven't tested whether it actually does anything afterwards, much less whether it avails itself of my video card or is accessible from Blender, but it compiles.)

@howetuft Sorry, mate, I should bite off my stupid tongue. Will try to work it out myself and gave you a proper critique ;)

howetuft commented on 2025-04-29 17:50 (UTC)

@bartus For your information, I'm the author. I can accept constructive comments aimed at improving this system, or questions aimed at clearing up certain misunderstandings (which seems to be the case).

Insulting comments, on the other hand, I won't.

@43615 LuxCore build system is currently undergoing a major redesign (I'm personally involved in it). We'll wait until this process is complete before updating the package.

Fails to build:

==> Starting build()...
-- CMake version 4.0.1 detected
CMake Deprecation Warning at CMakeLists.txt:28 (cmake_minimum_required):
  Compatibility with CMake < 3.10 will be removed from a future version of
  CMake.

  Update the VERSION argument <min> value.  Or, use the <min>...<max> syntax
  to tell CMake that the project requires at least <min> but has been updated
  to work with policies introduced by <max> or earlier.


CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:29 (cmake_policy):

  Or, add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to try configuring anyway.

@bartus Go ahead, it's no problem for me!
