QUCS on CentOS

This repo is just a script to help install qucs and qucs-s on CentOS.

Usage

First, clone this repo into your home directory:

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/fronzbot/qucs-centos-install

Then, cd into the cloned repo directory:

cd qucs-centos-install

From here, you can simply run the following command to install all dependencies and then build and install QUCS from source:

sudo ./start.sh

By default, the documentation dependencies are not installed because they take FOREVER. If you're a masochist you can use the following flag to install them (currently untested, so you've been warned):

sudo ./start.sh --install-docs

If you have any problems, please open an issue. If you feel like this install script can be improved, feel free to submit a pull request!

After Installation

To use QUCS you have two options:

qucs: Standard QUCS installation with built-in qucsator simulation engine
qucs-s: QUCS with SPICE capabilities using ngspice as the simulation engine

Using qucs-s creates a more familiar SPICE-like environement for those who come from a SPICE background.
