From: "Heppler, J. Scott" Subject: FreeCAD org.freecad.FreeCAD.desktop To: ports@openbsd.org Date: Mon, 11 Aug 2025 12:00:06 -0700 First off, thanks for all the effort in porting FreeCAD. I followed the development and the skill and effort was evident. CAD drafting and 3D printing is a rapidly growing, competitive area with essentially non-existent design rights in Cloud based solutions. Worse yet, some slicing programs upload to a LAN 3D printer via off-shore servers. OpenBSD privacy and security features make it a very attractive platform for device engineering and development. I did notice that FreeCAD does not start via the *.desktop file. To test, I copied the file to ~/.local/share/applications and edited Exec=FreeCAD - --single-instance %F to Exec=freecad - --single-instance %F The ~/.local version works. I also checked "FreeCAD" is in the upstream code base. Not sure if we're missing a FreeCAD start script or upstream is incorrect. -- J.
