Cordial greeting friends from synfig studio. I have tried to build synfig from the master branch, debug and testing on github and it has not been possible for me. The following error appears in the terminal:
synfig (synfig (148704) 148703) [21:05:21] [21:05:21] caution caution:: Cannot open ./synfig_modules.cfgCannot open ./synfig_modules.cfg

I tried to make the build work by uninstalling the ffmpeg from my system and installing a version equal to or greater than 3.0. As an issue says with a similar old error in github, but this didn’t work either.
I use the Archlinux operating system. Thank you in advance for the help you can give me.
Hi Rodolforg, thank you very much for answering. I have followed step by step what the building instructions say. I even tried both 2-build-debug.sh and 2-build-producction.sh. Previously I did the process of reviewing dependencies with 1setup-linux-native.sh. I obtained the source code by cloning it with git and also downloading it in zip. But I always get the same error. I also found in a previous issue of github a similar error and they recommended to correct that a version of ffmpeg = <3.5 be installed and I did it by building and installing it from Aur de archlinux but the problem persisted.
I hope the information is useful. Thank you very much friend. I also tried different branches (master, debug and testing).
I tested build on latest Manjaro a week ago, and all was builds fine.
“Cannot open …synfig_modules.cfg” - this is just a warning, and i plan to make it less annoying.
I can’t see the real error, so it would be nice if you could attach more data from the build log.
Hi Ice0. I compiled it again. I did it with 2-build-production.sh and the compilation was successful. I don’t know if it could have influenced the fact that today there was an update available in Archlinux of ffmpeg, exactly version 1: 4.2.2-2, or the last commit to the master branch that is made by you. Anyway thank you very much friend. I hope that at least the information is helpful in some way.
