[SOLVED] Error building branch geometry-nodes-simulation

Building Blender

Hi,

currently it is not possible to build branch geometry-nodes-simulation on up-to-date manjaro linux, latest master builds just fine (but selection does not work in the viewport). Compile output with error message:

[ 4%] Building CXX object source/blender/makesdna/intern/CMakeFiles/bf_dna_blenlib.dir/__/__/blenlib/intern/listbase.cc.o

[  7%] Built target bf_intern_libmv
make[1]: *** [Makefile:166: all] Error 2
make: *** [GNUmakefile:357: all] Error 2

Is it broken or am I doing something wrong?

That branch hasn’t been updated since Dec 19th and doesn’t contain the compile fix for boost >= 1.81 which occurred on Jan 4th: Fix building with boost >= 1.81 · 79837c5ed4 - blender - Blender Projects

You can apply it locally on your side to see if it helps but not sure what else you might run into.
