Below are the build instructions for Arch Linux over the Raspberry Pi

These instructions assume that your Arch Linux installation is up and running on
the Raspberry Pi with full network access. If not, please visit the following
Web sites for further instructions. As always, Google will also be your friend.
https://www.raspberrypi.org/documentation/
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Raspberry_Pi


* Update your Arch Linux installation:

    sudo pacman -Syu

* Install required packages:

    pacman -S git gcc cmake bison flex make openmpi --needed base-devel

* Create the foam-extend installation directory:

These instructions assume that you install in the default location, which is
~/foam/ . Create this folder with:

    mkdir ~/foam

* Obtain and unpack source code (if you read this, you probably already have):

The recommended way is to get the source code through git source code
management system. This way, you can get updates and bugfixes easily by running
"git pull". To install into the default location run:

    cd ~/foam
    git clone git://git.code.sf.net/p/foam-extend/foam-extend-3.2

* For Arch Linux, you need to customize your file etc/prefs.sh in order to enable
  the usage of system-provided packages, and to enable the compilation of other.

  Here is a list of commands that will do just that. You can copy/paste
  the following block of commands in a control terminal in order to make
  the necessary adjustments. You will need to be located at the root of your
  foam-extend-3.2 installation for those commands to work.

* Set environment variables:

    cd ~/foam/foam-extend-3.2
    . etc/bashrc

* Before compiling on the Raspberry Pi 2:

Even though the Raspberry Pi2 has a more onboard RAM memory (1 GB), it cannot
compile some parts of foam-extend in parallel without borrowing some virtual
memory (swap). Depending on your system configuration and the amount of enabled
services on your Raspberry Pi, you might even ran out of memory completely. So
it is recommended not to compile foam-extend in parallel unless you keep an eye
regularly on the compilation process and adjust your environment variable
WM_NCOMPPROCS accordingly so you can compile some libraries/applications in
parallel and some others using just 1 core.

   export WM_NCOMPPROCS=1    # or maybe 2

* Compile:

    # This will take a very long time but it will compile completely
    ./Allwmake.firstInstall


* Create user directory:

    mkdir -p $FOAM_RUN


And you are ready to start.
