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 If you see a new version in the FreeCad repository, please wait for 30 minutes before setting the package out-of-date flag.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.

0.21RC1 has been released, but is not updating here.

https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/download/0.21rc1a/FreeCAD_0.21.0-2023-07-31-conda-Linux-x86_64-py310.AppImage

@mauzil Thank you. Now it fixed.

Hi all. The PKGBUILD of 0.21_33485 downloads an aarch64 appimage file.

This is the source line of PKGBUILD source=("freecad-0.21_33485.AppImage::https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/download/weekly-builds/FreeCAD_weekly-builds-33485-2023-07-02-conda-Linux-aarch64-py310.AppImage" "freecad.sh" "freecad_weekly.desktop.patch")

Which is the correct url?

Best regards, MZ

Ok... I found it. Following github.com I get the correct appimage file

https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/download/weekly-builds/FreeCAD_weekly-builds-33485-2023-07-05-conda-Linux-x86_64-py310.AppImage

It seems there's a problem with the Git URL, I'm getting this error:

curl: (22) The requested URL returned error: 404 ==> ERROR: Failure while downloading https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/download/weekly-builds/FreeCAD_weekly-builds-33110-2023-05-07-conda-Linux-x86_64-py311.AppImage

That URL doesn't exist anymore and it seems that the weekly-builds are now located in https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/tag/weekly-builds. However, the AppImage there is old for some reason.

@snowball, thank you. It will fix in next update.

The following change is needed to make the .FCStd file type association persist:

diff --git a/PKGBUILD b/PKGBUILD
index d76c850..cf3ca0b 100644

 }

If the file is placed in /usr/share/mime/application instead of /usr/share/mime/packages, it will get overridden the next time update-mime-database is run (usually triggered by the 30-update-mime-database.hook pacman hook).

Problem of url change now fixed.

Hi the automatic check have probably a problem. The package have take the good version 0.20_29485.. but the url have bad refresh and is:

source=("freecad-0.20_29485.AppImage::https://github.com//FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/download/weekly-builds/FreeCAD_weekly-builds-29485-2022-07-10-conda-Linux-x86_64-py310.AppImage"

error after the end of .com " https://github.com//" ...two slash but require just one.. and the package date bad is on "07-10" but mus be "07-11"...

But the problem can come from too of the version on github because the eleven day is not in the week...

many thanks for yours package. Have a nice weeek.

Hi, The URL has changed, it's now : https://github.com//FreeCAD/FreeCAD-Bundle/releases/download/weekly-builds/FreeCAD_weekly-builds-29393-2022-07-07-conda-Linux-x86_64-py310.AppImage (2022-07-07 instead of 2022-07-04) Thanks in advance if you can update the PKGBUILD!
