Following command in PKGBUILD failed

rm build/linux-1.4/libminizip.so*

Also, the dependency collada-dom is quite ridiculous,

data/linux/arch/collada-dom/src/collada-dom-2.4.0/dom/src/dae/daeMetaGroup.cpp, line 29:

daeElement *daeMetaGroup::placeElement( daeElement *parent, daeElement *child, daeUInt &ordinal, daeInt offset, daeElement* before, daeElement *after ) {
	(void)offset;
	daeString nm = child->getElementName();
	if ( findChild( nm ) == NULL ) {
		return false;
	}
	daeElementRef el;

How can they return false when the return type has been specified daeElement?

[OstZ]

Oh, dep fakeroot is required but not listed in docs!

Also there is mitsuba-git in AUR :smirk:

Hi, I cannot install mitsuba-git in my Manjaro system via yaourt -Sy mitsuba-git. The reason is that it cannot correctly install python2-scons in my system. When I try to install python2-scons, it outputs errors here https://drive.google.com/open?id=1dbLNVklVBF114O3k733fa4T3yYskbd68 Can you correctly install mitsuba-git in your system? Thanks.
