Project Details

IRC: Mandeep_Singh

Community Bonding Period

Discussion about the project proposal.
Build FreeCAD from source on Archlinux.
Shifted to Ubuntu and tried building. Discussed the dependencies issue faced on IRC.
One issue was solved by creating a symlink of libfreeimage.so to /usr/lib from /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/ due to a bug on Ubuntu 16.04 (Xenial).
Another issue I was facing was related to C++.

   c++: internal compiler error: Killed (program cc1plus)
   Please submit a full bug report,

It was due to the make -j4 as it made the compiler run out of memory. Never happened on Archlinux though.

23 May : Plan is to try out the existing pluginloader & addon installer. Trying the pluginloader.
