freecad slackbuild doesn't work
 
The FreeCAD slackbuild doesn't work. All the Slackbuilds for the dependencies worked.

Code:
checking for boost system library... yes
checking for X... libraries , headers
checking for host... linux-gnu
checking for gethostbyname... yes
checking for connect... yes
checking for remove... yes
checking for shmat... yes
checking for IceConnectionNumber in -lICE... yes
checking whether QtWebKit is available... yes
checking for Qt >= 4.1... yes
checking for coin-config... /usr/bin/coin-config
checking if we can compile and link with the Coin library... true
./configure: line 17785: syntax error near unexpected token `,as_fn_error'
./configure: line 17785: `SIM_AC_HAVE_SOQT_IFELSE(,as_fn_error "'
root@darkswamp:/usr/local/FreeCAD#
Here's part of that configure file starting at line 17785:
Code:
SIM_AC_HAVE_SOQT_IFELSE(,as_fn_error "
        **** Cannot find SoQt devel files. ****
  " "$LINENO" 5)
I don't know what to do. That's the configure file in /tmp/SBo. Even if I alter it then when I run the slackbuild script again it wipes the old configure file and loads in a fresh one from the .tgz package.

I think the problem has something to do with bash4 parsing differently than bash3 or something? I don't know.

Hi darksaurian, Is SoQt installed? It appears the script can't locate it.

Good luck. ;-)

hi there

FreeCAD requires xerces-c, Coin, SoQt, Pivy, and OpenCASCADE.

You do not have SoQt installed

regards

Lawrence

darksaurian 04-10-2011 02:46 PM
Seems to be compiling now. I compliled all those dependencies, maybe I forgot to pkgtool that one.

I wonder why it gave me a syntax error instead of a missing dependency message.

tronayne 04-10-2011 04:24 PM
Coincidentally, I happened to be building FreeCAD (Slackware 13.1 64-bit) when I saw your message. Actually, I was in the middle of Pivy at the time.

Anyway, after waiting through a loonnggg build of OpenCASCADE (dang, it was a long, long time on a really, really fast platform), I compiled FreeCAD with no errors (well, I got the package) and have it installed. I wouldn't be surprised if you didn't have SoQT installed before your built Pivy and OpenCASCADE that you may need to check or rebuild those then tackle FreeCAD?

Hope this helps some.

darksaurian 04-10-2011 05:03 PM
No, I already installed FreeCAD. I had ran all the slackbuild scripts for all the dependenices. And I did installpkg on all of them except for SoQT, forgot that one for some reason. Yeah Opencascade and Freecad take forever to compile. Turned out freecad isn't even what I want.

I just wanted to look at some dxf files so I using A9CAD through wine now. I'd rather use QCAD but I can't get that slackbuild to work either.

Peacedog 04-10-2011 05:19 PM
What trouble did you have with QCad? I used the 13.1 build script for 13.0 and am using it now. I don't recall any major headaches.

Good luck. ;-)

darksaurian 04-10-2011 06:39 PM
I'm not sure if I did it right. I got qt3-3.3.8b-i486-opt1.txz from http://mirrors.dotsrc.org/slackware/...a/kde3-compat/ and installed that package. Then I ran the qcad script and this happened:

Looks like you didn't download the manual source. Grab that and put it in the build directory with the program source then try it again.

Good luck. ;-)

darksaurian 04-10-2011 08:10 PM
Oh. Yeah.

darksaurian 04-10-2011 08:16 PM
Thx I'm glad qcad works. Running CAD through wine sucks.

niels.horn 04-10-2011 08:30 PM
Just reading this thread now :)

FreeCAD is not really "ready" yet it seems, compared to commercial programs like VariCAD etc.
VariCAD is free to try for 30 days - you might want to take a look at it if you have professional interest in CAD programs.

QCad is nice for 2D designing, even at the professional level.

Glad you got it sorted.

HI there

If you just want to view autocad files ,

Then use Inkscape its on slackbuilds

Regards

Lawrence

mRgOBLIN 04-11-2011 03:10 AM
There is also LibreCad but I've not tried it out yet http://www.librecad.org/
