Hi All,
I occasionally need to do some drafting. About
25 years ago I knew AutoCad somewhat. Currently,
I need to do some minor landscape architecture.
LibreCAD (not QCad)
LibreCAD should replace QCad for all intents and purposes. It was a fork
of
QCad that has grown into something much more interesting. I used to
package
it, but haven't had time to work on LibreCAD or packaging for a long time
(so my existing packages which would work on SL6 are way out of date).
Anyway, installing it from source (or packaging it) was a snap on Fedora
14 and still should be rather easy.
Thank you!
What do you think of this spin?

recad-2.0.0rc1.git20130625-2.1.x86_64.rpm.html
Give it a whirl. Its nice that someone got v2 packaged for RHEL6! :-)
Build it from source and see if you like that better (probably a few bug fixes
and new GUI tools or something). Anyway, don't be afraid of it. Its a pretty
easy project to deal with, especially the new codebase, and the community is
nice.
Can you do an "rpmrebuild -ta tarball" on the source?
