Re: PKGBUILD for the radiance renderer package

Do you need to add stuff to the ld.so.conf search path and to $PATH? Do the binaries not work if they locate the libraries relative to the current directory e.g. with rpath? Do you need every single binary available on the $PATH, or just some of them that are expected to be available on the CLI?

pkgver=HEAD isn't very good, how do people know when there's updates? If you don't rename the files with the real version (see man PKGBUILD for "change the name of the downloaded file"), how do people successfully download updates if there is an old, cached version downloaded already?

Re: PKGBUILD for the radiance renderer package

eschwartz you mean something such as:
RPATH

    LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -Wl,-rpath,"'$ORIGIN/../lib'

RUNPATH

    LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -Wl,--enable-new-dtags,-rpath,"'$ORIGIN/../lib'

Re: PKGBUILD for the radiance renderer package

Indeed. I think cmake might add rpath for you automatically, if the install paths aren't broken by the upstream project settings. If not, well, I would hope upstream would add their own rpaths to make their default installation case work out of the box.

Sure, it could be manually added in by specifying the right $LDFLAGS too.

Adding the path to ld.so.conf might be overkill at the moment since it doesn't seem to be any library file in there that is used but rather other kind of files but since I've seen it upstream to some other aur packages I thought it might be a good practice (in case also in the future that there are some actual libs in there). The $PATH entries are necessary, since I need to have access to all the binaries and the guys from the package they informed me that the RAYPATH environment variable needs to specified.

Regarding the pkgver=HEAD you are right that it is a bad practice, I am trying to check now how to use the pkgver() to updated it automatically, I've seen some aur packages that they do that as well.

This a slightly updated version, which fetches the release tag from the remote repository using git. It should be fine now.

Yup, you are right on both.

Moreover, there is another issue which needs manual intervention. In order the trad script to work apparently the following needs be done https://discourse.radiance-online.org/t … 2?u=ttsesm (mainly step 2, step 1 is addressed from the installed tk package which adds an optional dependency though).
