Re: Linux AppImage missing

If your on Ubuntu or a derivative then I suggest the daily-PPA If your comfortable compiling, its the best, you have the freedom to control everything. Unfortunately the latest version of Ubuntu that there is a FreeCAD-daily PPA for is 19.10 and U...

Re: **FIXED***Latest freecad-community update broke *all* versions of FreeCAD on Ubuntu 18.04

Re: Latest freecad-community update broke *all* versions of FreeCAD on Ubuntu 18.04

I recommend Timeshift to anyone running a Linux O/S.
