FreeCAD
in [Suse]
|
From: Michael Soibelman on 24 Mar 2010 19:01 I've been using FreeCAD for a few weeks now and I'd been getting an error message everytime I started it up. This limited the usability of the program substantially. This is the error message I was getting: Error: The Python-Pivy package must be installed on your system to use the Draft moduleError: Python-qt4 package must be installed on your system to use the Draft module. Though I did have these dependencies installed I didn't have the versions necessary to run the program fully. So I added this repo (I'm using openSUSE-11.2) to my list: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/KDE:/Qt46/openSUSE_11.2 and updated my python-qt4 and python-qt4-devel to these versions: python-qt4-4.7-14.1.i586 python-qt4-devel-4.7-14.1.i586 Now FreeCAD is working well. Yes, this program is under heavy development but at least with this fix it becomes much more usable... Hope this helps anyone who wishes to try out FreeCAD. P.S. I think I got FreeCAD from Packman repo. It doesn't seem to be available at the http://software.opensuse.org/search page though. It would be nice if it was there as the additional repo(s) could be added with the one-click install method... Enjoy.

It's also on sourceforge for Windows. -- LSMFT I'm trying to think but nothing happens.........
