Re: [Downstream AUR issue] FreeCAD UI Messed up
I think currently it's the check of that package (it runs the freecad tests) that fails, not the build, passing the --nocheck flag to makepkg should allow you to install anyways, but note that FreeCAD (or rather some of it's dependencies) don't play nice with python 3.10 yet so expect some bugs.

Yes, I'm aware of this.adrianinsaval wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 6:50 pm I think currently it's the check of that package (it runs the freecad tests) that fails, not the build, passing the --nocheck flag to makepkg should allow you to install anyways, but note that FreeCAD (or rather some of it's dependencies) don't play nice with python 3.10 yet so expect some bugs.
I guess I should have specified: the un-modified update fails.
Since I have no idea what to actually put in the makepkg (pacman offers the option to edit before it attempts the update, but, not knowing how to put the -nocheck flag in...I opt for the instructions on the the package thread https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/freecad-git/ and use yay at the command line.)
Code: Select all
yay --mflags --nocheck -S freecad-git

Re: [Downstream AUR issue] FreeCAD UI Messed up
pamac* is the GUI developed by manjaro, pacman does not build anything from AUR. Anyway, if you want to do it in pamac you can comment out everything in the check(){...} segment of the PKGBUILD
Code: Select all
#check() {
# cd FreeCAD
# unset PATH_TO_FREECAD_LIBDIR
# cd build_dir
# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=lib bin/FreeCADCmd --console --run-test 0
#}

I have not been playing with Manjaro long enough to know the understand the difference in all you describe.adrianinsaval wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:23 pmpamac* is the GUI developed by manjaro, pacman does not build anything from AUR.

I understand that pamac is a GUI. I don't know the difference between pamac and pacman. (The icon properties showed the program name as pacman. Obviously i need to read up on the a lot of these tools... )
It shows the freecad-git state of upgradable. Click apply it offers the option to edit ( I assume it is the PKGBUILD).
I guess the yay command passes the flag somehow.
And, I see there is a way to get the PKGBUILD and use it by hand locally...but, have not grokked that yet as well.
Seems I need a lot more time with Manjaro.

Re: [Downstream AUR issue] FreeCAD UI Messed up
Just to clarify in-case you haven't read the previous comments in the thread. Despite me first building the git package from AUR (hence the title change) I am not straight up building directly from git, following the steps in https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Compile_on_ ... urce_build with the problem persisting.drmacro wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:36 pmI have not been playing with Manjaro long enough to know the understand the difference in all you describe.adrianinsaval wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:23 pmpamac* is the GUI developed by manjaro, pacman does not build anything from AUR.

Guilty, I have not read all 35 posts in the thread.ifohancroft wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:42 pmJust to clarify in-case you haven't read the previous comments in the thread.

I have built from pamac/pacman whatever and it fails the test portion as mentioned.
With the yay command I mention the build completes, but, FreeCAD is crippled.
I have also built from source, with the steps in https://wiki.freecadweb.org/Compile_on_ ... urce_build
This completes as well, but also ends with a crippled FreeCAD.

Yeah, that's usually the case with many posts in a thread.drmacro wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:49 pmGuilty, I have not read all 35 posts in the thread.ifohancroft wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 7:42 pmJust to clarify in-case you haven't read the previous comments in the thread.

I also stopped building from AUR. I can't remember if the build failed or what happened.
When you say you end up with FreeCAD crippled, do you mean the same problem I am having? You can see a screenshot a page or two back somewhere.

Not the same problem.ifohancroft wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 8:13 pm ...

Basically all tools on the Curves workbench fail.
And, I just noticed, that clicking the new document icon does nothing. But, File>New works.
So, it's pretty broken.

Re: [Downstream AUR issue] FreeCAD UI Messed up
That's weird AF. Have you passed any extra cmake parameters? Like to disable any features or workbenches perhaps?drmacro wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 8:35 pmNot the same problem.ifohancroft wrote: ↑Tue Jan 25, 2022 8:13 pm ...

I may also have this problems, but who knows, as it is unusable with the icons being like this so I can't test.
