No, it's also an Ubuntu but 14.04. It already has Qt5 packages but only 5.2 and it's probably pointless to try to use this ancient version. Also PySide2 is not available for it.

Re: Release of 0.18
I must admit I cheated a bit. You mentioned it a few times on the forum, and I have a good memory.

Enable native file dialog on Linux:

p = FreeCAD.ParamGet("User parameter:BaseApp/Preferences/Dialog")
p.SetBool("DontUseNativeDialog", False)

As for the Py3/Qt5 issues. Like screenshot/thumbnail support. In my opinion this are great features, used by a lot of end users, and hopefully eventually will work reliably on all platforms. From FreeCAD 0.18 release point of view, they are likely not blocking issues. FreeCAD 0.19 development cycle is where focus will shift to Py3/Qt5 and therefore if such issues will get resolved for FreeCAD 0.19. That would be great.

Re: Release of 0.18
Sorry guys, but I have been offline for a while.
At least for the next week I won't be able to fix bugs.
Regarding the QT5/Thumbnail issue. In my Ubuntu 18.04 box with metacity it does not work without the "patch". Because it seems to be really segmented (window-manager, theme, version,...), I do not think we will be able to find a useful solution. Maybe when we switch the PPA to py3/QT5 we start to have clearer picture.
I see Normand's feedback:
https://forum.freecadweb.org/memberlist ... file&u=202
Are these the only remaining issues?
I can try to take a look in two weeks...

I had some time to build the latest FreeCAD. Personally I am not attached to python2, so python2 issues won't affect me personally. I am building it with py2/qt5 just for checking potential issues.
Again I confirm the problem of the thumb with metacity. I am thinking of putting a checkbox in the preferences "Fix Qt5 thumbnail generation" and dynamically selecting between the alpha/non-alpha versions. I might be able to do a PR this evening.
I still have problems with this py2/qt5 build to load the Draft WB. The first error seems to indicate that I need the Python-pyside package, which I do not think I need, as with qt5 I should be using the pyside2 one, but which nevertheless I have installed. Maybe it is just me, but if it is not just me and we are thinking of providing py2/qt5 releases this may be an issue.
I do have the python-pyside package installed:
In fact, I have no problems at all in the same computer to load the daily build from the PPA (py2/qt4). Here Draft works as expected:

Re: Release of 0.18
In FreeCAD we still use the old PySide API. So "from PySide import QtCore" imports QtCore from PySide2. If you have both version of pyside installed it depends on where the PySide->PySide2 abstraction layer is placed in sys.path.
can you try the following:
Code: Select all
import PySide
import PySide2
print(PySide.__file__, PySide2.__file__)
Code: Select all
