I used the free QCAD up to the point of the fork, and it was really quite buggy for a long time. The zoom went wild at some magnifications, among other things. I jumped to LibreCAD when it appeared and I'm reasonably happy with it. All the bad QCAD bugs were fixed long ago, and I would assume they are fixed in QCAD now, if only by porting from LibreCAD. I do only use it occasionally, maybe twelve hours a year, so it may be much more irritating to a heavy user. > > And that I'd assume is not in the repo's for wheezy.

My poor little nine-year-old netbook was just about useable for this when hooked up to a large screen, though it's got stretch on it at the moment. Stretch apparently has 2.1.2 and I don't recall much major happening in the last year or two, well, let's say I haven't noticed anything new or fixed. (edit) looking at the changelog, there doesn't seem like anything that I would notice, I'm on Qt 5.11 but I wouldn't build from source. -- Joe -- Joe
