Asymptote is a powerful descriptive vector graphics language that provides a natural coordinate-based framework for technical drawing. Labels and equations can be typeset with LaTeX. As well as EPS, PDF and PNG output it can produce WebGL 3D HTML rendering and (using dvisvgm) SVG output.

Editor Notes: https://wiki.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/wiki/asymptote
Certain 3D PDF scripts may not work when invoked from pdflatex on some zen+ amdgpu APU machines.
First apply a patch to fix building without the Language Server Protocol :
patch -Np1 -i ../asymptote-2.86-build_fix-1.patch
Install asymptote by running the following commands:
export TEXARCH=$(uname -m | sed -e 's/i.86/i386/' -e 's/$/-linux/') &&
./configure --prefix=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX \
--bindir=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/bin/$TEXARCH \
--datarootdir=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist \
--infodir=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist/doc/info \
--libdir=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist \
--mandir=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist/doc/man \
--disable-lsp \
--enable-gc=system \
--with-latex=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist/tex/latex \
--with-context=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist/tex/context/third &&
make
To test the results, issue: make check.
Now, as the root user:
make install
--prefix=, --bindir=, --datarootdir=, and other
「dir」
switches: these switches ensure that the files installed from
source will overwrite any corresponding files previously installed
by install-tl-unx so that the
alternative methods of installing texlive are consistent.
--libdir=$TEXLIVE_PREFIX/texmf-dist:
This parameter ensures that the asymptote directory will similarly overwrite any
files installed by install-tl-unx.
--disable-lsp: The Language
Server Protocol is enabled by default, with several third-party
sources included, but it does not build unless boost and repidjson
have been installed.
--enable-gc=system: this
ensures that the system version of libgc.so will be used instead of the version
shipped with this package.
--with-latex= --with-context=: These switches
ensure that style files and a tex file will be installed into the
texlive directories instead of
creating a texmf-local directory for
them.
