OpenSCAD on Debian

I'm playing with Linux again.
Got Debian Stretch installed and using it to RDP into my Windows VM until I
transition.
It's a bit flaky ATM but that may be my RAID1 NVME 'creative' solution...

Anyway, Synaptic installs OpenSCAD 2015.03.

Can I have multiple versions installed like on Windows (via zip)?
How do I get the 2019.05 release?

I take it if I follow the instructions re "openscad-nightly", that can
co-exist.


Admin - email* me if you need anything, or if I've done something stupid...

Yes, the nightlies are packaged to go into separate folders so they
can installed in parallel.

ciao,

More Linux adoption issues.
What's going on here? 'Can't open library...'
http://forum.openscad.org/file/t359/Screenshot_use_error.png
The source file is in ~/openscad which also contains the library folders
'use<>'ed in the source.
It finds the first two, what's different with 'scad-utils'?
2015.03 if that matters.

Next step - openscad-nightly

Debian / Ubuntu packages built on OpenSUSE build service

To install the packages, the release key must be added with apt-key to the
key-ring to allow apt-get / aptitude to validate the packages.
Key ID: 75F3214F30EB8E08 (valid till 2021-04-18)
Key UID: home:t-paul OBS Project
<
home:t-paul@build.opensuse.org
>

Well apt-key help is not particularly helpful.
So how does a Debian beginner do this?

I tried 'wget -qO - https://files.openscad.org/OBS-Repository-Key.pub | sudo
apt-key add -'

gpg: WARNING: nothing exported
gpg: no valid OpenPGP data found.
gpg: Total number processed: 0

I've never seen that fail really, I suspect that maybe wget is

Does it work separately?

Try it as:
sudo ls
then wget -qO - https://files.openscad.org/OBS-Repository-Key.pub | sudo apt-key add -

I have had problems before because sudo needs you to authenticate, but piping
into sudo redirects stdin and stdout, making authentication impossible.

Yeah.. Don't....  Dont' do it like that.  That makes the privledge
seperation pointless and you may as well run everything as root.

When you are doing system management tasks that all need to be performed as
root, it's pretty pointless to sudo each particular command. When i am
doing this type of thing, I either run commands that don't need root in a
different prompt, or su them to the user
