  IMHO, Education repository is a better place, because it already has
  such CAD programs as QCad, CADEMIA, HeeksCAD...

  Education is about the worst place to put it, because there is so much
  software that, in one way or another, can be useful in and for one's
  education. In other words, "Education" is too coarse a label. And there
  is far too much software that clearly /is not/ education-related in the
  Education project.

  I installed the package from graphics and is packaged only the binary
  but the font and pattern files are needed and not present. One desktop
  file would be nice.
  From: 
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=LibreCAD&project=home:Rallaz
  you can get a librecad.desktop (and more info about fonts & patterns)
   
  #6: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2011-10-21 21:45:52) (reply to #5)
  Part of the problem is also that there is no `make install` provided in
  librecad. gnaaaa...
   
  #7: Jose Soriano (rallaz) (2011-10-23 10:16:15) (reply to #6)
  At the end of make process is executed "scripts/postprocess-unix.sh",
  this shell script is responsible to realize the installation but in the
  build tree. patching the line 4 RESOURCEDIR="`pwd`/unix/resources"
  the install is realized in the build process

  LibreCAD 1.0 is now released. 
http://www.h-online.com/open/news/item/LibreCAD-1-0-released-1404215.html
  and the rpm packages on the website seem to work great!

+ #9: Jan Engelhardt (jengelh) (2012-04-04 23:35:35) (reply to #8)
+ Shipping LibreCAD is not possible ATM due to conflicting licenses
+ between LibreCAD (GPL-2.0) and one of its dependencies, fparser (LGPL-
+ 3.0).
