QCAD Linux installer target directory

Re: QCAD Linux installer target directory
You can use the --target switch to specify the target directory. For example:
Alternatively, you can extract the tar.gz anywhere on disk and start QCAD from that directory:
Code: Select all
./qcad-3.27.6-pro-linux-x86_64.run --target /home/user/my/target/dir
Code: Select all
tar xfvz qcad-3.27.6-pro-linux-x86_64.tar.gz
cd qcad-3.27.6-pro-linux-x86_64
./qcad
Re: QCAD Linux installer target directory
Tried ./qcad-3.27.6-pro-linux-x86_64.run --target /home/user/my/target/dir, but it does not work. Qcad is always installed in the /home/opt directory.
What can I do? I'd like to install it in a hidden folder like /home/.opt.
My OS is Arch linux.

I cannot reproduce the problem. You might want to install from tar.gz instead (simply extract and run from the directory that is created).
