If the check fails there is little I can do about it as it most likely needs to be fixed upstream, in such cases report those upstream (maybe wait a day or two as sometimes it's quickly solved upstream) or skip the check with makepkg --nocheck if you don't care about the functionality that is being reported as failing in the check.

Maybe the package name can get a rename to 1.1.0-dev or something instead of 0.22.xxx ?

opencamlib should probably be an optional dependency? It's used in the CAM workbench and is also an optional dependency of the freecad package in extra.

The last day or so the build has failed. Not sure if this is local to me or not:

It appears that freecad-git only randomly is seen as changing.

If I force a build with, for example, yay, it get the latest git version, but package managers don't see updates automatically (or randomly see it).

The check fails, so has be commented out in PKGBUILD to get yay to not error out and install the build.

There also seems to be QT6 issues in the UI that are not present in builds on other OS's (Debian) where QT5 is used.

Most of this is just passing on FYI.

FYI: fix for the installation issue https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/pull/16105

@adrianinsaval it appears that we need to add the dependency ifcopenshell

That will fix the exception:

    import ifcopenshell
<class 'ModuleNotFoundError'>: No module named 'ifcopenshell'

(note that I can't actually build ifcopenshell right now)

Haven't seen an update since 38242.

The github version is at 38323.

AFAIK freecad doesn't use fast_float and I haven't had any trouble besides that warning compiling without it so I don't see much benefit on adding it. I'm happy to add it if I'm wrong

For a good compilation seems, when using OpemMP, that there is an unspecified dependency with package fast_float (current version is 6.1.0-2), I would specify it in depend, before the line openmp1

otherwise there is this warning:

...
-- Found OpenMP: TRUE (found version "4.5")
CMake Warning at /usr/lib/cmake/vtk/VTK-vtk-module-find-packages.cmake:3130 
(find_package):
By not providing "FindFastFloat.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project
has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "FastFloat"

  FastFloatConfig.cmake
  fastfloat-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "FastFloat" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"FastFloat_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files.  If
"FastFloat" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has
been installed.

Is this due to the Qt6 change?
