Hi Yorik, thanks for the patch! I tried to adopt it for the current Debian freecad version, but you are right, there is a problem to patch Draft_rc.py. Are there really necessary changes in this file which needs to be done to fix the issue?
I am considering now to upload the latest git-version of FreeCAD, but I have doubts whether it is a right solution. We are several days before freeze. If I upload it with some problems, we do have again a chance not to get FreeCAD in the stable Debian version. I would avoid that if it is possible, Thanks again Anton 2014-10-18 19:27 GMT+02:00 Yorik van Havre <yo...@uncreated.net>: > Hi Anton, > > I just committed[1] a fix to this problem.
