Right, that might very well be the case. Lets not bother about this then. > >> Maybe you have primitive substitution turned on in LDView?

(but you should have > found the file anyway...) LDView downloads things while it's running??? Thanks a lot for making me aware of this! I'm currently packaging LDView for Debian and as I now saw, the source code indeed has pieces which allow for online retrieval. I must immediately make sure that these bits are never executed without explicit request from the user or otherwise this is a privacy breach which makes LDView unfit for Debian. On the other hand, I just had Wireshark open while looking at some files with LDView and could not find any network activity from LDView. cheers, josch _______________________________________________ Leocad mailing list [email protected] https://list.gerf.org/listinfo/leocad
