I have prepared a change to the Debian package that will eliminate this issue.
** Description changed: - Using freecad 0.16.6712+dfsg1-1ubuntu2 from Ubuntu 18.04, the gui is - broken - it says something about missing webgui. There is also a debian - bug report with this problem: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi- - bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=886538 . Workaround is to switch to another - workspace. + [Impact] + + * Using freecad 0.16.6712+dfsg1-1ubuntu2 from Ubuntu 18.04, the Start + Workbench is broken due to a missing Qt4 dependency of WebGui. + + * Backporting the proposed fix will prvent FreeCAD from building the + affected Workbench as well as changing the default to the Part + Workbench. + + * The proposed upload will fix the issue by setting the default + workbench to "PartWorkbench" in src/Main/MainGui.cpp. Additionally, the + pacakage rules file is modified to prevent the Start Workbench from + being built. + + [Test Case] + + * On Ubuntu 18.04, install freecad and run normally. + + * An empty Start Workbench is loaded. The message "No module named WebGui" is logged in the report view. + + [Regression Potential] + + * All functionality provided by the Start Workbench will be + unavailable. ** Patch added: "freecad_0.16.6712+dfsg1-1ubuntu3.debdiff" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freecad/+bug/1753376/+attachment/5277685/+files/freecad_0.16.6712+dfsg1-1ubuntu3.debdiff -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1753376 Title: Freecad's start workbench points to missing webgui -> almost empty gui To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/freecad/+bug/1753376/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
