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 can be installed from the command line on openSUSE Leap 15.x and Tumbleweed.
You need first add the snappy repository from the terminal. Choose the appropriate command depending on your installed openSUSE flavor.
Tumbleweed:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Tumbleweed snappy
Leap 15.x:
sudo zypper addrepo --refresh https://download.opensuse.org/repositories/system:/snappy/openSUSE_Leap_15.6 snappy
If needed, Swap out openSUSE_Leap_15. for, openSUSE_Leap_16.0 if you’re using a different version of openSUSE.
With the repository added, import its GPG key:
sudo zypper --gpg-auto-import-keys refresh
Finally, upgrade the package cache to include the new snappy repository:
sudo zypper dup --from snappy
Snap can now be installed with the following:
sudo zypper install snapd
You then need to either reboot, logout/login or source /etc/profile to have /snap/bin added to PATH.
Additionally, enable and start both the snapd and the snapd.apparmor services with the following commands:
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd
sudo systemctl enable --now snapd.apparmor
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.
