Arch Linux User Repository

Hi. The script automatically checks for new versions every half hour. If you see a new version in the FreeCad repository, please wait for 30 minutes before setting the package out-of-date flag. Thanks you.

Having issues trying the latest weekly build on my workstations. I've verified that my yay client is downloading the entire AppImage to ~/.cache/yay/freecad-weekly-appimage/, however this part of the install fails:

package() { install -Dm755 "${srcdir}/freecad-${pkgver}.AppImage" "${pkgdir}/opt/appimages/freecad.AppImage"

After testing on a physical and virtual workstation, only the first 192K of the AppImage is copied from .cache to the /opt/appimages directory.

$ du -sh * 192K freecad.AppImage

AppImage runs fine out of the .cache/yay/ directory, just isn't copying for some reason.

@Kunda This will be fixed in the next update. Thanks.

Note: https://aur.archlinux.org/cgit/aur.git/tree/PKGBUILD?h=freecad-weekly-appimage#n8

url="https://www.freecadweb.org/"

should be:

url="https://www.freecad.org/"

@mauzil Hello. I think, you should looking developers forum. I don't know about this.

Goodmorning.

When I start freecad, I get this error

/home/runner/work/FreeCAD-Bundle/FreeCAD-Bundle/conda/linux/AppDir/usr/share/libdrm/amdgpu.ids: No such file or directory

I use freecad on Ryzen 5 7320u

Hi! I fixed problem, please test. Thank you!

PKGBUILD is wrong now,

./freecad-${pkgver}.AppImage --appimage-extract freecad_weekly.desktop

should be:

./freecad-${pkgver}.AppImage --appimage-extract org.freecad.FreeCAD.desktop

This patch (applied on the aur) shall fix the error caused by the new structure of the appimage:

I run into the same problems.

Being a lazy YAY user, I jumped over this problem by supplying the missing stuff from the old installation during build:

cp -p /usr/share/applications/freecad_weekly.desktop ~/.cache/yay/freecad-weekly-appimage/src/squashfs-root
patch -p1 -R -d ~/.cache/yay/freecad-weekly-appimage/src/squashfs-root/ <  ~/.cache/yay/freecad-weekly-appimage/freecad_weekly.desktop.patch
cp ~/.cache/yay/freecad-weekly-appimage/src/squashfs-root/usr/share/mime/packages/org.freecad.FreeCAD.xml ~/.cache/yay/freecad-weekly-appimage/src/squashfs-root/usr/share/mime/packages/org.freecadweb.FreeCAD.xml

Now that I am reading this, I think I should have fixed the PKGBUILD ;-)

There is something wrong with version _33848

squashfs-root/usr/share/mime/packages/org.freecad.FreeCAD.xml can't find file to patch at input line 3 Perhaps you used the wrong -p or --strip option? The text leading up to this was:
