Hi folks,

I recently upgraded from Ubuntu 16. 04 to Ubunto 18.04.4 LTS unfortunately my FreeCad daily disappeared after that Upgrade.
I tried to install is newly with

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-daily
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install freecad-daily

of course one after the other
and with
ppa:freecad-maintainers/freecad-stable in the Ubuntu software center.
Both variants did not work.
My computer is a 32 bit system with 1.9GB RAM and 85 GB free space on C:/
processor is a Pentium(R) Dual-Core CPU E5300 @ 2.60GHz × 2

What did I do wrong???

Thanks in advance and best regards

Armin

Hi Armin

AppImage and PPA are different things. As far as the AppImage goes it likely wont work on your side (32 bit system). As for the packages available from the PPA. Currently i am not sure, on what the situation on Ubuntu 18.04 is. Package names and as far as the support for 32 bit systems is concerned. Taking a quick look on the Launchpad it looks like the package should be available. Maybe something like this will work:

Code: Select all

sudo apt-get install freecad-daily-python3

Unfortunately the daily version information says:

maybe it does not work on Ubuntu 18.04. ???

The daily version works without problems in Ubuntu 18.04, 64-bit.

Code: Select all

apt-cache policy freecad-daily
freecad-daily:
  Installed: 0.19~pre2~202003101353~ubuntu18.04.1
  Candidate: 0.19~pre2~202003101353~ubuntu18.04.1

Than it looks that my 32-bit system might cause the problem. Has anyone FreeCad on a 32-bit Ubuntu system with 18.04 LTS installed running?
If I knew that before I would have stayed with 16.04.

Don't use 32-bit. This is 2020.

Don't use 32-bit. This is 2020.

No need to be so forward, there are distros that still support 32-bit and that's fine. Users who opt to do so understand the scarcity of packages that puts them in.
