Thanks for the link. I was insufficiently familiar with the SRU process
to realize what the process was. I was running off of your earlier post
indicating you would prepare an SRU. I installed your work-around and
it appears to work.
Interesting that the software is made freely available, but

FYI, this issue is still active in 10.04 LTS when qcad is installed
from the synaptic package manager.
dpkg -s qcad | grep Version
returns
Version: 2.0.5.0-1+090318-2
Same command for qcad-doc returns same version number.
Was there a change of plan w.r.t. providing an SRU?
This bug isn't a high-impact bug and a work around exists. An SRU most likely
would not get approved, but you can follow the proceedure here:

Ah - and most importantly, the QCAD author has asked that the
documentaiton and fonts be removed from Debian and Ubuntu (he claims
that the code is open source but the documentation is not), so we're
legally not allowed to distribute the documentation any more.

Hi Scott,
I actually didn't know what ppa was until I saw your post!
I have typed the command into Terminal. It shows exactly the same
information about the version no.
Thanks!

Thanks alot for testing, I'm glad to hear you learned about ppas!
The version from my ppa does not install qcadddoc.adp.gz I just
downloaded it and checked - the file is uncompressed in the archive.
You can check it yourself by downloading the -doc.deb file from my

Hi Scott,
I am a Ubuntu beginner and I have experienced the same problem with the
Help function in QCad and looked for solutions everywhere, until I see
your post.
I installed the fix package from your ppa (glad that you also posted the
commands, otherwise I wouldn't know how to do it).
Hi
as it affects me and I use
DISTRIB_ID=Ubuntu
DISTRIB_RELEASE=10.04
DISTRIB_CODENAME=lucid
DISTRIB_DESCRIPTION=Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
with an LTS at the end, it should be fixed here too.
I would be happy to transfer the fix for Maverick to lucid if I have
some advice from someone knowlegeable.

Yes, an LTS SRU
I'm using 64 bit version of ubuntu 10.04.
I went into /usr/share/doc/qcad/html and did: sudo gunzip qcaddoc.adp.gz
and did: sudo ln -s /usr/share/doc/qcad/html/qcaddoc.adp /qcaddoc.adp
As root, I edited the file qcaddoc.adp and replaced
DCF ref=index.html with DCF
Sorry, I was wrong, every html line must have the full path, including
ones like license.html#1_1.

Workaround:
With the qcad-doc package installed, open a web browser and browse to:

If you symlink it from the root directory it will open the manual, but then

From what I understand, Qcad searches for documentation in
/usr/share/qcad/doc and not where the qcad-doc package places the
documentation.
