If that worked before the "pkg upgrade" - which packages have been upgraded? (In reply to Christoph Moench-Tegeder from comment #1) Unfortunately it is not so direct. The package FreeCAD was working in FreeBSD 11.X, I used it. Since a few months I moved to FreeBSD 12.0, yesterday I wanted to use FreeCAD, I installed and I saw it is not working. Before doing the `pkg upgrade` I was getting an error concerning Qt libraries, after `pkg upgrade`, Qt libraries were updated, theat problem was solved, but still the program stops somewhere. If it can be of any help, I can tell you that I tryed to run it in also Linux compability mode and I have problems even in that way. bye Nicola If I compile from the port with -DBATCH option FreeCAD works. Ports freshly updated before the compile. I generally use packages. Unfortunately the port is very large, it took me hours to compile it. It is better to have the package working;) bye Nicola I think something went wrong with your whole upgrade process - the exceptions above are all coming out of python's own pkgutil.py and "really shouldn't happen that way". What's more, this is the first report of FreeCAD not working in this way, and there are more users of this port than just you and me... Did you perhaps upgrade the base system from 11 to 12 with all the ports left in place? I'm not sure that whould be a safe thing to do, you'd have to reinstall almost all ports... Hi Cristoph, -] This installation of FreeBSD-12 is fresh, not an upgrade from 11.X. -] I work daily on the image, so, of course, I added and removed stuff in time. But I try to stick as much as possible to packages. -] Before the `pkg upgrade` the install of FreeCAD was failing due a QtCore minor number. If I remember well. The `pkg upgrade` completed without any issues. -] I don't use any popular fat Desktop environment. I use fvwm so, it may be the case that the problem does not manifest itself in general because most of the FreeCAD users in FreeBSD are working (i suppose) with Gnome and KDE which load a tremendous amount of stuff for themselves. -] The single component that has created me recurrent headaches is Qt. Unfortunately I can't tell you more than this at the moment. I have other FreeBSD-12 installations but they are headless.

That doesn't make this any easier. And now that you've rebuild FreeCAD it's about impossible to re-create the broken state. Hm. > -] I don't use any popular fat Desktop environment. I use fvwm so, it may be the case that the problem does not manifest itself in general because most of the FreeCAD users in FreeBSD are working (i suppose) with Gnome and KDE which load a tremendous amount of stuff for themselves. Rest assured that FreeCAD works very well under fvwm. I don't think we'll make any progress here - the non-working state is gone and can't be debugged any more, and this was the only report of such problems (I run my own poudriere and use those packages - "it just works"). What's more, there's 0.18.4 around the corner, I'm only waiting for the final announcement (lest upstream rolls some last-minute-fix). I'm closing this, please report back if it breaks again. |
