[Qgis-user] QGis and developpement version
Hi, On various forums, when I asked some question, I have got more and more answer like that: you can do this with the development version of QGis 1.9... but you can't with the current version... It is quite frustrating! Why QGis don't do like some other opensource software, propose the both version on their website (the current and the development one with a message which inform that it is not a stable version)? I know that I can found this development version, but I find it quite a shame to have to looking for this version and not to find it on the main website, especially for software that tries to be very friendly user. User of several opensource software's, I find it quite a shame. So why it is not easier to access to the version 1.9, even if it is not accomplished? or why some people do reference to this version, while it is not available on the official website? It will soon be a year since we are with the 1.8 version … And for some other installation on linux computers, the default version is the 1.7, there is some steps before getting the current version. So I know that can seem very easy for some advanced users, but for some others (I saw that around me), it is not so easy, and it is pity that for these persons there is not more updates with some improvements which runs well on the development version. Just to share my point of view, don't worry, I'm not angry against QGIS, which I find excellent, it's just a reaction to the answers on many forums that refer to this version. Cheers.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGis and developpement version
Hi Oni, (I'm sure I'll be corrected if I get anything wrong). It is on the website. 1.9 is the development version, aka master. Not sure what sort of computer you want to put QGIS on, so try one of these: Win: http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/wiki/Download#13-Master Deb: http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/wiki/Download#213-Master Ubu: http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/wiki/Download#263-Master Mac: http://hub.qgis.org/projects/quantum-gis/wiki/Download#42-Master I'll expand on the linux bits a bit. 1. Unless you compile from source, you can not have 1.8 and 1.9 on the same computer. I understand you need to pass some nonstandard settings through to make it work. 2. If you do use the deb or ubuntu testing packages, a) note the bit about them being for testing purposes, and b) uninstall everything relating to your old QGIS before installing the master packages or expect the unexpected. 3. I don't use the other distributions. so I'm not clear on how master works on them. Probably, see 1. -ramon.

Having a Windows laptop, I had no problem installing Lisboa standaolne and OSGeo4W Master in parallel. To use Ubuntu, I installed Virtual Box, one machine with the stable Ubuntu 12.04 and QGIS 1.8.0 from ubuntugis, and a second with Ubuntu 12.10 and Qgis Master according to the tutorial above. But it took me several weekends to get all running. That's not quite user-friendly, I think.

Re: [Qgis-user] QGis and developpement version
Unless you compile from source, you can not have 1.8 and 1.9 on the same computer. This is not really right. Using OSGeo4W you can install 1.8 and 1.9 and run them at the same time. I'm doing it now. In fact I tell people to do it all the time in order to test stuff for us. - Nathan On Mon, Mar 18, 2013 at 12:13 AM, Andre Joost andre+jo...@nurfuerspam.dewrote: Am 17.03.2013 15:08, schrieb Ramon Andiñach: Hi Oni, (I'm sure I'll be corrected if I get anything wrong).
