    Hi
    I would like to try Pycam 6.2 I have installed it on my ubuntu 16.04. I have installed and can open the prgram but I am unable to set a process or strategy. I am getting this error in the console.

    Traceback (most recent call last):
    File "/home/####/Desktop/pycam-0.6.2/pycam/Plugins/Processes.py", line 239, in _process_new
    strategy = strategies[0]
    IndexError: list index out of range.

    Grateful for any help
    Thanks
    Aaron

    Exact same problem on Arch Linux. Any solutions?

    This sounds like there were some error messages before?
    The above indicates that some components (e.g. the available toolpath strategies) were not loaded due to a problem.

    Anyway: did you try the newest version (0.6.3): https://github.com/SebKuzminsky/pycam/releases ?

    Hi, re: version 6.3. Please make the requirement of enum32 more obvious. And that its available as backport for many linuxcnc users ( eg wheezy ). And that the magic is to cd to the enum32 dir, then to do 'python ./setup.py install' . I did not know the 'install' bit and it took quite some time to find out what pythonistas must think is obvious. Thanks for a very nice tool.
