NO WARRANTIES at all --- this is my first snap, and you can use it at your own risk!
This is a snap version of the Frans Schreuder's PPA of QUCS, corresponding to version 0.0.19-rc3, for Ubuntu 16.04. QUCS is a very nice circuit simulator.
You have to install it with snap install --devmode --edge qucs-19-rg
In the first run, you need to go to File -> Application Settings -> Location tab and set Qucs home correctly (legacy value is .qucs in your home directory). Moreover, the snap is unable to call inkscape, so you can only save as image in .png and .svg format, nad do the conversion to eps/pdf by hand.
The executable is called qucs-19-rg.qucs
The snap yaml is available at https://github.com/Rmano/qucs-19-snap

Snaps are applications packaged with all their dependencies to run on all popular Linux distributions from a single build. They update automatically and roll back gracefully.
Snaps are discoverable and installable from the Snap Store, an app store with an audience of millions.
On Arch Linux, snap can be installed from the Arch User Repository (AUR). The manual build process is the Arch-supported install method for AUR packages, and you’ll need the prerequisites installed before you can install any AUR package. You can then install snap with the following:
git clone https://aur.archlinux.org/snapd.git
cd snapd
makepkg -si
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
If AppArmor is enabled in your system, enable the service which loads AppArmor profiles for snaps:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor.service
To enable classic snap support, enter the following to create a symbolic link between /var/lib/snapd/snap and /snap:
sudo ln -s /var/lib/snapd/snap /snap
Either log out and back in again, or restart your system, to ensure snap’s paths are updated correctly.
To install qucs-19-rg, simply use the following command:
sudo snap install qucs-19-rg --edge
Browse and find snaps from the convenience of your desktop using the snap store snap.
