How to install Openscad in Ubuntu 18.04/18.10?












2














There is no current release of this source package in 18.04 (Bionic Beaver).
However, openscad-mcad exists, which depends on openscad, so that's obviously an error.

  • 18.04 is now supported, the package is still missing (with an open bug report), and the question/answer should now be valid.

It seems openscad is neither in 18.04 nor in 18.10, I just opened a bug here, feel free to subscribe to it.



In the meantime, here is a procedure to install openscad from the PPA:



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:openscad/releases
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install openscad
