This is the repo for the Flatpak version of Bforartists, based on https://github.com/flathub/org.blender.Blender

Building Instructions

  1. Install flatpak and flatpak-builder from your distro's repo
  2. Install the SDK flatpak install flathub org.freedesktop.Platform//23.08 org.freedesktop.Sdk//23.08
  3. Clone the repo (with --recurse-submodules for the shared Flatpak modules)
  4. Create a new folder called build-dir
  5. To build for testing, execute flatpak-builder --user --install --force-clean build-dir de.bforartists.Bforartists.yaml. This will build and install Bforartists.

Note that this will compile x264 from source

Upgrading to the Newest Version

Open org.bforartists.Bforartists.yaml and scroll down to this section:

sources:
  - type: archive
    url: https://github.com/Bforartists/Bforartists/releases/download/v3.5.1/Bforartists-3-5-1-Linux.tar.xz
    sha256: a179a87cd295c7d1df4aad0aab4c4a2b14665aa21fd2e822b3583bfba6ed5b6a
    strip-components: 0

Replace the url variable with the url of the latest archive (much be from GitHub releases) and sha256 with the result of sha256sum <Bforartists tar archive>. In addition, it's important to check the upstream Blender flatpak repo to see if anything in the manifest has changed.
