cad

forum1793 · 03-16-2010, 08:23 PM

Are there working slackbuilds for brlcad or qcad.

For brlcad, I found the 12.2 version and it did have an arch line that I could change to x86_64. It does a 15 second delay telling us not to install at /usr as it might overwrite some files. But it didn't finish compiling. It tells me it can't find a makefile. Have to look and see if autogen or something has to be called.

For qcad, I tried alien's 2008 build script. That was quite a bit before the 64 bit slackware and I was not surprised when it kicked out. It ends with:

Code:

cp: `./qcad/qm/qcad_el.qm' and `qcad/qm/qcad_el.qm' are the same file
cp: `./qcad/qm/qcad_cs.qm' and `qcad/qm/qcad_cs.qm' are the same file
cp: `./qcad/qm/qcadcmd_sk.qm' and `qcad/qm/qcadcmd_sk.qm' are the same file
cp: `./qcad/qm/qcad_sk.qm' and `qcad/qm/qcad_sk.qm' are the same file
cp: cannot stat `qcad': No such file or directory
qcad.SlackBuild FAILED at line 200

Does anyone else have scripts of these working?

thank you,

Hi, appreciate both of your responses. I thought I searched but maybe only for qcad. I tried your fix for brlcad and it did make it farther but died with:

I think there is some newer source. I might give it a shot.

After looking briefly at configure, I try disabling what I assume is their internal build and using what slack comes with. Didn't work.

I have managed to build and install qcad on slackware64-13.0
I have the kde3 compatibility packages installed from the extra/ dir

qcad-2.0.5.0-1-community.src.tar.gz
partlibrary-2.1.2.8-1.tar.gz
qcad-manual-en-2.1.0.0-1.html.zip

with 2 minor changes these will build and install from the Aliens slackbuild
change the ARCH to -x86_64
and comment out line.. export QTDIR="$(ls -1d /usr/lib/qt-3*)" .. as it is already properly set in /etc/profile

they will build and install
and now the BIG BUT

The actual executable "qcad" never gets built even though the slackbuild does not throw an error

on line 192 of qcad.Slackbuild
when qcad should be copied into the package directory
this error is reported but the build continues

cp: cannot stat `qcad': No such file or directory

maybe someone can tell me what is happening here
but so far I can't see what is happening prior to the error
I guess I should report to Alien, but he seems awful busy with the distribution
I am still playing around when I have time. so I may just solve it yet

I run the pro version here just unpacked into /opt but it's only 32bit.

I did build the community edition when we were first testing Slackware64 on my Laptop and it worked just fine.

I'll have to see if I still have the SlackBuild.

Edit: Referring to qcad here

forum1793 · 03-19-2010, 09:34 PM

For brlcad, I made a few changes to the configure and it now kicks out using external Tcl where it did previously using it's internal.

configure

Code:

Also, I'm using xfce and have removed all kde. Could that be problem?

forum1793 · 03-20-2010, 11:45 AM

For brlcad and with the png related problem, I took a break from 64bit and tried this on slackware-13.0 32bit that has kde. Got some opennurb error.

I made this change and then used following configure and it compiled and made pacakge.

Code:

./configure \
  --prefix=/usr/brlcad \
  --sysconfdir=/etc \
  --localstatedir=/var \
  --mandir=/usr/man \
  --x-includes=/usr/X11/include \
  --x-libraries=/usr/X11/lib \
  --disable-png-build \
  --disable-tcl-build \
  --disable-tk-build \
  --disable-tkhtml3-build \
  --disable-jove-build \
  --build=$ARCH-slackware-linux \
  --with-x \
  --with-tcl=/usr/lib \
  --with-tk=/usr/lib

During compile I got many message like that below and it took a long time. The produced package is ~156MB.

Code:

libtool: link: warning: `/usr/X11/lib/libstdc++.la' seems to be moved
copying selected object files to avoid basename conflicts...
using piecewise archive linking...

I haven't installed it yet but will post if it works in next day or so.

forum1793 · 03-24-2010, 08:51 PM

So brl-cad under slackware-13.0 eventually built and somewhat works. I haven't been able to spend enough time on controls or directions. So far it's not point and click.

Could not get qcad to compile. But tried simply installing alien's premade package for 12.0 and it worked using 32 bit slackware-13.0 environment with xfce. So far I can draw lines. Not as easy yet as I'd hoped. They're probably keeping the easy to use interface for the paying customers.

For the limited time I did spend though, I could have pulled out the old drafting stuff and did it by hand.

mRgOBLIN · 03-25-2010, 01:40 AM

There are a pile of patches to allow qcad to compile on 64bit and against the new glibc. They are are there with AlienBob's SlackBuild.

http://connie.slackware.com/~alien/s...ds/qcad/build/

This all worked for me on Slackware64-13.0. You'll need the qt3 compatibility packages installed.

AlleyTrotter · 03-25-2010, 09:49 AM

I tried this build on slack64-13.0 and for me it does not produce the executable 'qcad'
after correcting the pointer to the QTDIR /opt/kde/lib64/qt3
the thing builds the packages and installs but no /usr/bin/qcad
I do have the compatability packages installed from /extra

Dont you EVER default to install BRL CAD binaries into /usr/bin... NEVER...

When I started using Slackware, I would build BRLCAD <current> ( guess it was 7.16.2 ... ) with src2pkg without specifiying an Install directory, this would drop all my libs to /usr/lib64, binaries to /usr/bin... etc.

So far so good, but there was a tiny detail that consequently would bork my system... one of Brl Cad's binaries was a thing called "cp" which will copy objects between BRL CAD databases... and acts similarly but DIFFERENTLY from GNU cp...

As a result of this... after "installing" BRLCAD, "funny" things would start happening...

It took me weeks to figure out why everybody in this forum could compile things that i simply couldn´t even after following the same steps....

I only figured this out after typing man cp in a shell...

man told me that cp was a brlcad utility, etc, etc...

So, respect BRLCAD's defaults....
and place something like

export PATH=/usr/brlcad/bin:$PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/brlcad/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH

in your ~/.bashrc to have mged ready in shell

my advice here...

Alexvader · 03-25-2010, 11:58 AM

BTW... has anyone here managed to build FreeCad...?

This relies in OpenCascade infrastructure, as well as in ODE ( Open Dynamics Engine ), the latter has a SlackBuild, the former has no Slackbuild and is tricky to compile in Slackware... current release is 6.3.0... mut this needs to be patched, and some shell scripts have to be runned in order to initialize some variables...

I wouldn't find out what to do, so I googled, or better I AURed ( Thanks Arch folks, for the information available...

) and found this...

http://aur.archlinux.org/packages/op...scade/PKGBUILD

I'm sure you can change this to build OpenCascade in Slackware, and install it to /opt/opencascade for instance...

My prob with freeCad, is that after setting the right options in cmake ( FreeCad allows for two kinds of build, cmake, and automake ...) build fails... so I try ./configure ... configuring fails because of boost ( yet I have boost installed )... has anyone here been through this... ?

Both my OCC, and ODE are correctly installed... I have built several stuff linking with that...

ponce · 03-25-2010, 12:12 PM

never tried building that, but as for boost I suggest to have a look at "./configure --help" and try passing (if supported)

Code:

  --with-boost-libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
  --with-boost-system=boost_system \
  --with-boost-filesystem=boost_filesystem \
  --with-boost-thread=boost_thread \
  --with-boost-regex=boost_regex \
  --with-boost-program-options=boost_program_options \

to configure if you are on current

Code:

  --with-boost-libdir=/usr/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
  --with-boost-system=mt \
  --with-boost-filesystem=mt \
  --with-boost-thread=mt \
  --with-boost-regex=mt \
  --with-boost-program-options=mt \

if you are using 13.0 (it really depends on the version of boost you are using).
