I built version 2.0.1 with the following changes:

A new version is out! The build fix isn't working (building) but the app still functions without it. Minimum changes needed to PGKBUILD were:

Yeah, sorry all, update to nvidia driver got it working again.

After today nvidia update to version 381.22 - RepetierHost work normal on my system.

I also have the same problem, with the same symptoms WizardStan is having, but my installation first got broken, then worked intermittently after a recent system update, and then got broken again.
I wish I could provide more information, but I haven't captured it, unfortunately.

Tried running it right now with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose, as fagotto suggested, and I'm not getting to a crash. It spews out an entire wall of:

libpng warning: iCCP: known incorrect sRGB profile
libpng warning: iCCP: cHRM chunk does not match sRGB

..and then just sits there, wasting 100% of CPU core while showing a frozen splash screen.

I've delayed the update for some time on the computer on which I use repetier-host. After the update I have a similar problem: the splash screen freeze without displaying the actual image but the region of screen is freezed. Looking at the console output and running it with LIBGL_DEBUG=verbose I get:
https://pastebin.com/x8WVYmk1

In particular I think that the issue is:
libGL error: No matching fbConfigs or visuals found
libGL error: failed to load driver: swrast
I've not figured out how to bypass this error. I tried to compile repetierHost from source but I got the same error.

N.B. I am using:
$ pacman -Qs nvidia
local/libvdpau 1.1.1-2
Nvidia VDPAU library
local/nvidia-340xx 340.102-5
NVIDIA drivers for linux, 340xx legacy branch

@WizardStan: Did you found any solution? Which graphic library do you use?

Is anyone else having issues? I hadn't printed anything in several weeks so I'm not sure when this started, but it isn't doing... anything. It starts, the splash screen is visible, a window opens but there's nothing in it. Splash screen never goes away, mono is spinning at 100% CPU. No crash or anything, it's just not moving further. I'm assuming it's just me since no one else has mentioned anything in months and I can't find any mention of these symptoms anywhere else on the internet.

@ZHoob2004 thank you for sharing your solution! To me it does not seem so bad: in /usr/include ios.c_ispeed is declared as an unsigned while baud is an int and (int) - (uint) = uint so it generate an error because abs(uint) does not make sense. Casting to a int seem a good solution we should only check if some error of overflow may occurs!

@OKAN, you must follow the advice from ZHoob2004: to learn how to create a personal patch follow https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Patching_in_ABS

It seems repetierHostLinux_1_6_2 is out but I didn't have time to check if this error was corrected!

I am getting error during installation:

SetBaudrate.cpp:71:29: error: call of overloaded 'abs(speed_t)' is ambiguous

I don't know if anyone else is having trouble, but I had to change

SetBaudRate.cpp:71
- if(abs(baud - ios.c_ispeed) * 100 / baud >= 5) {
+ if(abs(baud - (int) ios.c_ispeed) * 100 / baud >= 5) {

to get a successful build. Probably not the ideal way to do it, but I'm no programmer.
