Re: how do devs keep the software reliable and safe?

The proper way is to write the unit tests before a single line of code is written, see https://bluefruit.co.uk/people/unit-tes ... ts-before/
The tests are run against all new Pull Requests before merging so rigorous tests equals good code and vice versa.

Re: FreeCAD does not Install OpenFoam and Paraview

@hooshsim you should use Installer-3 from https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/releases/tag/0.20.2 for 0.20

Re: Farewell

Your excellent models and thorough explanations will be missed, another loss for what was one of the most friendly forums I viewed/frequented, thanks for your efforts.

Re: How to copy a spreadsheet and sketches from one file to another?

Firstly it's always good to just note that you're using realthunder's Link Stable version from what I can see though that shouldn't make a serious difference in this particular case. What you need to consider when copy/cut from one file to another is how many references are there in the objects, for...

Re: no path

@NewJoker let's be absolutely clear about this, an existing user with custom Toolkit Library, custom Job Templates etc can just open the latest weekly and everything in their existing files will work error free?

Re: [Assembly4] "Save" button does not work, saying OpenCV not installed

For now, I can live without saving the animation, but a fix would be cool. That error message is very misleading as it can be caused by the Pillow library being version 10.0 or greater therefore it should be pinned to version 9.5.0 which has been done to the Conda builds recently. To determine your...

Re: Compilation failed (Debian 12 - bookworm).

The first question I would ask is did you run: git pull or git pull --recurse-submodules before you started the cmake and make? and just quote the full hash that you're compiling, I've just started compiling https://github.com/FreeCAD/FreeCAD/commit/6c8ee5964521a99e01c8d33cbf9aac8a19273ef3 on my ful...
