If you need stl-thumb, please instead use stl-thumb-git
this package is no longer working.
stl-thumb-git will build correctly against the system and work. At this point, this package should be retired in favor of stl-thumb-git as it is not providing binaries anyway and is not checking out any git tags.

doesn't work for me anymore :(
simple-thumbnailer-stl does
you also have to rm -rf ~/.cache/thumbnails/fail (at least for nautilus)

This package didn't produce thumbs for me, however...
Use the stl-thumb-git version and be sure to select STL Documents in Dolphins Preview settings. (I have STL Model as well but it does nothing)

@kuenx, it's working for me on every system I've tried it on. Is your rust up to date? Is there any more info provided with the error?

Unfortunately, I also can't install the package. I'm getting this error when installing with yay. Clean build doesn't help either.

Package should be fixed with v0.5.0. If you are still having trouble try doing a clean build (rm -rf the build directory).

Note: switching to 'tags/v0.4.1'.
You are in 'detached HEAD' state. You can look around, make experimental
changes and commit them, and you can discard any commits you make in this
state without impacting any branches by switching back to a branch.
If you want to create a new branch to retain commits you create, you may
do so (now or later) by using -c with the switch command. Example:
git switch -c <new-branch-name>
Or undo this operation with:
git switch -
Turn off this advice by setting config variable advice.detachedHead to false
HEAD is now at c009ddf Fix benchmark test
