Re: freecadpip not found in freecad 0.21.2 via apt-get install

"How do I install a Python package into FreeCAD?" is a pretty common question, and the answer is annoyingly complicated. If that program does what it sounds like it does (I have never heard of it before now) then yes, I think it could be a good idea.

Re: Issue with forum register

Yes, I see it. I have corrected the email address (yes, there was a typo in it). You should be able to validate that account now, and then we can delete the extra one.

Code: Select all

cmake --build /path/to/source -DCMAKE_CXX_FLAGS="-DFREECAD_USE_TNP_FIX"
