QCad Crashes on open - Puppy Linux

Post by vtqcad » Wed Jul 11, 2012 2:47 am

Puppy Linux Racy 5.3

1.) need to set execute on downloaded binary
2.) installer calls for absent option in mkdir (-v) so /root/opt/ directory is not created:

Code: Select all

QCAD Setup...
Making dir /root/opt/qcad-3.0.0-rc5-prof-linux...
mkdir: invalid option -- 'v'
BusyBox v1.19.3 (2011-11-09 07:34:50 WST) multi-call binary.

Usage: mkdir [OPTIONS] DIRECTORY...

Create DIRECTORY

	-m MODE	Mode
	-p	No error if exists; make parent directories as needed

QCAD Setup finished.
Press Return to close this window...
3.) Manually creating /root/opt/ and /root/opt/qcad-3.0.0-rc5-prof-linux allows the install to complete, but opening QCad crashes:

Code: Select all

# ./qcad
./qcad-bin: symbol lookup error: ./qcad-bin: undefined symbol: _ZZN11QMetaTypeIdIP9QTextEditE14qt_metatype_idEvE11metatype_id

Thanks for the feedback.

Unfortunately, this likely means that Puppy Linux is not supported by QCAD 3 at this point.
We might add support for additional platforms after the final QCAD 3 release.
