I tried to build Guenther's Pythonized OpenSCAD, but ran into trouble, so I tried building vanilla OpenSCAD from source, following the directions here: https://github.com/openscad/openscad/#building-for-linuxbsd When I do this: sudo ./scripts/uni-get-dependencies.sh I get: Package qt5-default is not available, but is referred to by another package. This may mean that the package is missing, has been obsoleted, or is only available from another source E: Package 'qt5-default' has no installation candidate installed qt5qt-default to enable qmake I Googled around and discovered that qt5-default is now called qt5-assistant. I installed that and cleared the above warning. ./scripts/check-dependencies.sh runs with no problem. qmake returns the qmake help message, so it's not finding something that it expects. Thoughts? uname -r = 5.15.90.1-microsoft-standard-WSL2

Hi father, Great that you Managed to Install Most of the dependencies. I think, next step on the list IS something Like creating the build directory and running cmake. Maybe check again the instructions in my Site ?

This builds without errors: git clone https://github.com/gsohler/openscad.git cd openscad git checkout python-pr3 git submodule update --init --recursive sudo ./scripts/uni-get-dependencies.sh sudo apt install qt5-assistant ./scripts/check-dependencies.sh mkdir build cd build cmake -DEXPERIMENTAL=1 -DENABLE_PYTHON=1 .. make sudo make install I started it, went into preferences and enabled python, and restarted it. It doesn't respond to any inputs and I have to go back to the shell and kill the process.

I take it back. It responds to keystrokes but not the mouse. I'm willing to say it's a WSL2 issue.

Great that IT builds Can you create a test.py with cube().output() And start openscad test.py To See If If Makes a difference? IT will ask you whether ,you Trust into that File.

I suspect that the Warning Dialog IS blocking the application. You can disable IT with --trust-python command line Argument. Can you also try normal openscad Code If IT Blocks, too with your Compiled openscad? Thank you! Guenther Sohler <guenther.sohler@gmail.com> schrieb am Mi., 30.

I tried it on a native Linux machine and it works fine, so it's some complex WSL2 thing.

Hi father, so openscad did some Python in your place? Are there any additional hints for New Users for compiling ? What IS wsl2?

I was able to execute cube().output() and get a cube. I filed a bug report over the qt5-default issue. Until that gets resolved, Ubuntu users (and derivatives) will need to install qt5-assistant manually. I don't know about other distros. WSL2 = Windows Subsystem for Linux, version 2. It basically gives you a working Linux system within Windows.
