Detailed description

The AUR package requires opencl-mesa and it fails during the yay -S mandelbulber2-opencl-git

==> ERROR: A failure occurred in build().
    Aborting...
 -> error making: mesa-panfork-git-exit status 4
 -> Failed to install the following packages. Manual intervention is required:
opencl-mesa-panfork-git - exit status 4
mandelbulber2-opencl-git - exit status 8

Would be possible to add support to the opencl-nvidia drivers?

Steps to reproduce

[buddhi1980]

I'm not a maintainer of packages for AUR Linux. Even more, I'm not familiar with this Linux distribution. I see that the problem was already reported to the package maintainer (reported issue is visible here: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/mandelbulber2-opencl-git).
Have you tried to build the program from source or use Appimage? (https://github.com/buddhi1980/mandelbulber2/releases/download/2.31-1/Mandelbulber_v2-2.31-1-x86_64.AppImage)

This is the AUR package I use to get things working on a Radeon card via rusticl. The dependencies do indeed need updating by the maintainer because it's broken for everything right now due to opencl-mesa package no longer existing. A workaround is to make sure you've got all the deps installed except opencl-mesa, then use yay -Sdd mandelbulber2-opencl-git

It should allow it to build and also work with your Nvidia setup.
