Arch Linux User Repository

Preemptive note on version 2.3.0:

At the time of me writing this it's still 2.3.0-rc with no final release, but it is unusually buggy with a lot of different UI elements causing a crash when used. With that in mind I will not be rushing to update this package to 2.3.0 once it's tagged - I will give it at least several days to see what state 2.3.0 is and if we're better off waiting for 2.3.1.

Wayland support status:

I'm currently unable to test Wayland issues/fixes because I don't have a working Wayland setup. That will be changing in a coming weeks as I'm planning to switch to Wayland first. In the meantime I'm happy to accept a co-maintainer with experience dealing with Wayland-specific issues.

Known issues:

• Camera/Live view/whatever you call it for BambuLab printers doesn't work. AFAIK it's a dependency issue that has been solved in some appimages. I will be tackling this, but there is currently no timeline. Contributions welcome.

I get this build error (sometimes, seem a bit random where exactly it fails, so perhaps a parallel make issue with underspecified dependencies)?

is the correct patch

Please correct the wrapper (shell script) /usr/bin/orca-slicer to pass all arguments to the actual program binary (/usr/bin/orca-slicer-bin). See suggested patch below.

@cgx appreciate the suggestion but had the same problem with the model viewing area still being black with additional artifacts on the menus when trying it with gamescope.

@UmbraEx As a temporary workaround, you might try running it with gamescope. Something like gamescope -w 1920 -h 1080 -f -b orca-slicer

Having issues under wayland with KDE Plasma. The area where you view the models is blank. If I switch back over to X it works fine though. Relatively new to arch but have tried going through the log outputs but not sure what to look for.

Log of lines look like this:

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!

I think you don't need ttf-harmonyos-sans any more. You should also check namcap it has a couple of complaints.

pkgrel in .SRCINFO currently does not match PKGBUILD. See ArchWiki entry for .SRCINFO as for why this is bad.

I have no issues building this package on arch updated today. Also, updating the pkgbuild to 2.1.1+updpkgsums, everything compiles and seems to work fine.

@DIsaacs this is a brand new problem caused by Arch upgrading to cmake 3.30, specifically changes related to boost https://cmake.org/cmake/help/v3.30/policy/CMP0167.html#policy:CMP0167

This will take a while to resolve - every time I have to dive into rat's nest that cmake files are I get a rash.
