Willtcomm I actually maintain a Windows 7 computer for various reasons. I'll grab it hear in a sec and post back if I can get the latest FreeCAD running on my Windows 7 install. And as others have stated there is an enormous amount of updates required to get Windows 7 fully updated a patched. I'll ...

that's interesting. i remember installing that converter a while (several months) and if memory serves me correctly the freecad gui preferences prompted me for a installation path of the odaconverter. i believe had to download the converter manually from a 3rd party website possibly due to licensing...

I didn't explicitly add any dependency on pyparsing. Are you building MacBundle from the source? Is this module installed on your local system? it's been a minute, since i built your fork of freecad, but if memory serves me correctly i was getting the dep error for pyparsing when running through th...

using homebrew deps provided by the homebrew-freecad tap the build will fail using the below cmake dance, cmake \ 0 (14.552s) -DHOMEBREW_PREFIX=$bp \ -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE="$bp/opt/python@3.10/bin/python3" \ -DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR="$bp/opt/python@3.10/Frameworks/Python.framework/Headers&q...

built a fairly recent version of the link stage branch of freecad on macos. am able to launch the app however there appears to be a dependency on pyparsing.

should there be some sort check for the pypasring library while configuring the build?

groff thanks for sharing your steps in hopes that others will be able to reproduce. this something i have noticed as well (the ongoing issue with the pyside and shiboken installs and the manual setup for the site_packages dir). however, i have done a bit of a different dance in order for freecad to...

@ipatch, thank you. I‘m on vacation right now and will further test when I‘m back. as for your Py_complex issue i believe that may be to the cmake setup process finding a different version of pyside. homebrew-core provides a `pyside@2` it seems recently the pyside@2 formula file provided by homebre...

Has anyone success in compiling the latest FC source on arm64 architecture and could share a reproducible build setup? Preferably using Homebrew and Python 3.10. I'm stuck with the Py_complex and Py_UNICODE errors mentioned above. Thanks. yeah i built a non app bundle yesterday on an m1. i'm trying...
