[Bug 1225612] Re: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software
@dino99 That is _one_ of the packages. After years. Wings3d is also functional again, happily. These two improvements are very recent. But the others are still lacking. No cura, and it has even changed versions (and it has two repositories, stable and master, from @thopiekar). Pronterface from the repositories is broken, although the github version works ok. No octoprint and no repetier server - repetier _host_ went the closed- source way so I do not think it is eligible anymore. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1225612 Title: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1225612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 1225612] Re: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software
This bug report is now 3 years old, and it was a simpe request for packaging of already existing software. No action was done, no PPA was integrated, no readily available package was added to the distribution. Meanwhile, Microsoft massively invested in 3D-printing-related stuff, released lots of documentation and educational videos about 3D printing, manufactured a comprehensive, easy and useful 3D printing framework with lots of necessary libraries, helped draft and standardize the 3d- printing file format 3MF and even converted their paint software to 3D modelling and printing. Should I shout "disappointed" or it is clear enough? I and others take a lot of effort to get Ubuntu where it should be for people to use it in "real life" but Canonical completely neglects market directions, users' expectations and practical usage. All the effort, including in following the correct path of opening a bug report, was for nothing. You cannot do that and at the same time say users should report bugs if you do not give any attention to them. It might be useful internally, but for me, as an user trying to solve a problem, it is next to useless. That is not my first bug report to go unattended for a long time, but it is the most egregious, because it highlights a big gap in Ubuntu, it is quite easy to initially amend and it involved a really bad attitude from canonical staff. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1225612 Title: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1225612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Or is the focus on mobile an unexplored opportunity? I would love the option of controlling my printer using an ubuntu phone rather than a big clumsy laptop. You can't do design on a touch-screen, but downloading models from thingiverse, slicing them and feeding them through a printer-interface (pronterface) should be doable on a mobile device. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1225612 Title: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1225612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I agree that Repetier Host + Slic3r is a priority. I successfully installed RepetierHost (manually) but failed to setup Slic3r on my Ubuntu 14.04 box (version mismatch here).

I have two other software packages which would fit into this list. Arduino - needed to compile and upload all firmware for people building their own reprap printers.

I'll try to invest some time on this during my next patch pilot. As I don't have a 3d printer (and don't know much about it), would be nice to have a small prioritized list with the stuff you'd like to be available/fixed first. ** Changed in: ubuntu Assignee: (unassigned) = Ricardo Salveti (rsalveti) ** Changed in: ubuntu Importance: Undecided = High -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1225612 Title: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1225612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1225612] Re: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software
The most important package is without doubt Repetier Host; it is both a very competent 3D printer controller, a competent slicer frontend and a stunning 3D visualization software. However, due to some very recent perl modules requirements for its slic3r dependence, it might be a little awkward to make it work (lots of new perl modules would have to be packaged too). So the second most important unpackaged software would be the Cura software package, I think. And it does not seem specially difficult to do, would take just a few modifications to the package offered by their developer. replicatorg and repsnapper are old packages which are not very used anymore. I think they are very low priority. It might also be wise to package pronterface. Although sort of a simple 3D printer controller, it has a competent interface for advanced 3d printing commands, and is certainly required by savvy people. OpenSCAD version needs updating. Importing from its PPA would be great. So, in short: - Repetier Host, complicated to package, but important; packaging it will require packaging of slic3r too. - Cura, easy to (re)package, second most important; - pronterface, also important to advanced users and it's already in a PPA, very easy to import to mainstream ubuntu. - openscad could benefit from a newer version, which is in the PPA. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1225612 Title: Lack of packaged 3D Printing Software To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/1225612/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
