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.
Snap is available for CentOS 7.6+, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.6+, from the Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux (EPEL) repository. The EPEL repository can be added to your system with the following command:
sudo yum install epel-release
Snap can now be installed as follows:
sudo yum install snapd
Once installed, the systemd unit that manages the main snap communication socket needs to be enabled:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.socket
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.
