segmentation fault for qcad 3.0 prof [solved]

I have a box running kubuntu 12.1, qcad 3.0 Prof opens fine on that box. I installed 3.0 prof on my laptop, kubuntu 12.1, installed the ia32... libraries to get rid of the libGLU.so.1 error and now I get a segmentation fault message. Any ideas? Thanks.

Did you install both, the "ia32-libs" and "ia32-libs-gtk" package? On some installations the latter seems to be required as well.

In ubuntu there is a transitional package ia32-libs-multiarch that has the libraries as dependencies. I do see gtk engine files as dependencies. I will check into my other system.

I checked my desktop system and it has the same packages installed. So, I guess it is a deeper issue. Quite unfortunate. I will post the logs in case it helps with possible code changes.

unfortunately I ran an upgrade on my desktop unit and now I get the same error as on my laptop: ./qcad: line 38: 27089 Segmentation fault (core dumped) LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$DIR" "$binary" $OPT1 $OPT2 "$@"

Thanks for the information. It seems like the update has caused the problem. Possibly an update to an incompatible version of glibc or another library.

Can you please let me know what package of QCAD you have installed, the regular Linux package or the one with -alt in the package name?

You might also want to try the current development snapshot ( 3.0.8 ) available from your download area. It ships with its own version of glibc which might fix the problem.

To download QCAD 3.0.8, please follow our instructions at:

Then scroll down to "Development Snapshots".

Unfortunately when trying to download I get an expiration date message. I had purchased sometime back in mid 2011 and was upgraded to the 3.0. Will I have to purchase again and risk it not working?

I've sent you a temporary, direct link for QCAD 3.0.8. Please let me know if that solves the issue or not. Thanks.

Hello Andrew,

Will there be a patch to fix the problem or do I have to buy the next version of QCAD? I no longer have access to the download area.

QCAD v 3.0
Platform X86-64 bits
Linux 3.8.0-19-generic
Kubuntu Raring

Thank you.

Pierre: I've sent you an e-mail with direct download links for QCAD 3.0.9.

Thank you very much Andrew. The Hyperlink works well as version 3.0.9. Is the 3.0.9 version is an official or is it a transitional version?

I will buy the next official release.

Sincerely,

Pierre

3.0.9 is a development snapshot (not intended for production use). The reason it works on your Linux system is that it includes the libraries "libgcc_s.so.1" and "libstdc++.so.6". If you copy those over to your QCAD 3.0.0 (stable) installation, you should be able to run 3.0.0 as well.

Hi Andrew, I have exactly the same situation as Pierre, (same error message, 2011 license), except that I'm running Opensuse 12.3.

I see that I have installed 2 c++ libs, maybe the reason for the problem ?

libstdc++6-32bit-4.7.2_20130108-2.1.6.x86_64
libstdc++33-32bit-3.3.3-38.1.1.x86_64

Before I purchase the next release could you help out with the 3.09 link ?

TIA, peer

This problem should no longer exist in newer QCAD releases which link against older versions of libstdc++ and glibc.

I am in a similar state to pipo, a recent update to my openSUSE 12.3 system yields the error message referenced above.
I have QCAD 3.0.0 installed, purchased in 2011 (was 2.x at the time, then updated).

Is there no way to patch my system to keep 3.0.0 running?
