Hi,
I am trying to use QUCS on my brand-new-upgraded Ubuntu 18.04. I tried the snap version and it does not work. The usual PPA has a version only up to Xenial.

Is there a guide on how to install / use QUCS on Ubuntu 18.04?

Thank you,
Romano

    Ok, I have it running by installing the following packages with software install:

    -rw-rw-r-- 1 romano romano 1037112 Jul 20 22:55 octave-epstk_2.4-2_all.deb
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 romano romano 161878 Jul 20 22:51 adms_2.3.4-10_amd64.deb
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 romano romano 77196 Jul 20 22:51 asco_0.4.9-4_amd64.deb
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 romano romano 6277172 Jul 20 22:51 qucs_0.0.19.qucs-rc1-4_amd64.deb
    -rw-rw-r-- 1 romano romano 20975452 Jul 20 22:50 qucs-doc_0.0.19.rc1-4_amd64.deb

    ...but it seems a bit of cheating. Is there some official way to do it?

    Is there a solution to this?

    I'm trying to install QUCS inside a docker container on a jupyterhub to be able to use the command line simulator.

    My contain is runing 18.04 (bionic), but it seems the PPA does not have any packages for bionic?

    http://ppa.launchpad.net/qucs/qucs/ubuntu/dists/

    I just created an account on "ubuntu one" and am contacting Frans Schreuder who is listed as the maintianer. Is this the correct path, or is there someone else I can contact?

    Thanks,
    Gary

      Dear Gary,

      I was indeed the maintainer, but I am not doing much qucs anymore the
      last years.

      For Ubuntu there is a qucs snap available at the moment. I could still
      fire up the ppa, but I would have to find some time for that.

      Regards,

      Frans

        Are there apt-source soruces anywhere? I could also consider building the package myself, the server I am running my JH on is also running 18.04

          update: i just grabbed the amd64 binary deb file, did dpkg -i --force-all and now i've got qucsator running in my Jupyterhub containers

          pragmatic solution :)

    Maybe you can have a look at my take at an AppImage:

    https://rmano.github.io/qucsAppImagesBuild/

    The authors are working quite hard lately toward the QT5 migration here: https://github.com/Qucs/qucs , but for the moment you can use the appimage as a stopgap.

    Hello everyone, the qucs ppa is back online, there is a qucs 0.0.20 package now for Ubuntu 18.04 and 20.04.

    sudo apt-add-repository ppa:qucs/qucs
    sudo apt update
    sudo apt install qucs

     
    • Romano Giannetti

      Wow, great!
      How did you compiled it on 20.04? Did you add the Qt4 source? (I am interested for other apps too...)

        Frans - 2020-10-22

        Yes, I copied qt4 from another ppa into the qucs ppa.
