Working with Freecad

Installation

We need a more up-to-date version of freecad. It might already be installed on some of the lab machines, but perform the following check:

apt-cache policy freecad

The above command will tell you if freecad is installed, and the version. You need at least version 0.15, and if the candidate is less than that, you'll have to get an up-to-date version:

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

Install freecad:

sudo apt-get install freecad
