Is it possible to retrieve and run "qucs" from 15.2 repos on leap 15.3

Your new instructions and files got the qucs gui fired up. I put in a resistor and that worked. I'll try a few sample cases to check functionality. That will take a while.

Thanks for the effort. It looks successful.

I had embarked on trying to install a windows version and run qucs with wine, But, all I could find was a windows mobile version of qucs so I was going to try to get that going. Who would want to run an elaborate gui on a telephone (if that is what windows mobile is) is beyond me.

thanks again. Could qucs be packaged into the science or electronics repos for all as it used to be? or else, maybe some instructions other than the forum thread? I'll volunteer to write them up.

Hi
QT4 is dead and gone..... push the developers to support QT5.

The problem is, that qucs is depending on libqt4 and that is depreceated and not packed in Leap 15.3 and higher anymore.

I have use first the libqt4 from windows:mingw Repo, but that does not work.
Now I use the libqt4 from KDE:Qt Repo which is working with this package.

You have to inform the developer to port their qucs to QT5........

I am not a developer, I can only read and get Information from the net...........

I have posted a message to the entire qucs mail list requesting that priority be given to moving qucs to qt5. I even volunteered to do any dog work associated with that. I have not yet received any responses to my submitter to the email list. I assume it is working but I don't know.

I will update this thread if I get any significant responses.
