It sounds like you might need to install flightgear-data?

Has anyone gotten this to work? I tried to install via AUR and then compiling from the source, and when I run fgfs, it takes me to the cessna 172p and it's out in the middle of the water.

I read as much as I could from flightgear forums and wikis, and arch wiki

in PKGBUILD it should be

pkgrel=2

@iggyvolz I replaced it. Thanks for the hint.

Depends on openscenegraph34 - moved to openscenegraph

In my case, I had to adjust the CMakeLists.txt for the fgviewer utility by adding

GL

into the target_link_libraries.

(inserted one line after https://github.com/FlightGear/flightgear/blob/22de9d30b518646894ac190cc6b04371daa6d5c2/utils/fgviewer/CMakeLists.txt#L49

Otherwise, fgviewer would not link.

I'll try to inform the flighgear team on github about this issue as well.

Thanks for the update, FredBezies! Unfortunately I am stuck with building simgear. Using your update there, it apparently fails to create a "config.h" which is required in the udns module. I'll investigate.

What's the reason for FG to degrade from a [community] package to a poorly maintained AUR one anyway? (No offense to the current maintainers) :)
