Export to LDraw Format from LeoCAD 0.80.1

[Thomas Reininghaus]

.lcd is indeed the old proprietary file format of LeoCAD. You should update to a more modern version, now LeoCAD saves (only) as .ldr! But if I remember well, with older versions, you just have to specify .ldr when you supply  the file name in the "save as" dialog (or maybe there is a listbox to choose format there? don't remember precisely)

Tried the .ldr trick with no success. I am on Ubuntu 14.04 and didn't do updates for a while:

Code:

sudo apt-cache policy leocad
leocad:
 Installiert:           0.80.1+svn1545b-1
 Installationskandidat: 0.80.1+svn1545b-1

 
I will go for 16.06. Thanks a lot for clarifying.

I updated Ubuntu to 16.06 LTS.
I removed LeoCAD 0.80.1
I reinstalled LeoCAD using

Code:

sudo apt-get install leocad

resulting in

Code:

sudo apt-cache policy leocad
leocad:
  Installiert:           0.81+svn1775-1ubuntu1
  Installationskandidat: 0.81+svn1775-1ubuntu1

How to install v17.07 (see https://github.com/leozide/leocad/releases/tag/v17.07) using Ubuntu package manager?
