I am having problems building LibreCad from Qt.
I have a stand alone version of LibreCad but each time I try to save a file it crashes.

Is muParcer and boost required to build LibreCad from Qt?
I have the source code downloaded and have the LibreCad.pro file loaded in to Qt.
I have unchecked the shadow option for both debug and release versions.
I get the following error: :-1: error: Can not find Boost installation in /boost/boost_1_53_0.
When I try to build the project.

I am currently reviewing the file rs_modification.cpp.
I am having to develop a flow chart for myself in order to understand what's going on.

If need be I can install Ubuntu along side of Windows if you think Linux might be the best way for a person who is a novice with Qt to start out.

I see several areas where I can do a google search and learn fundamental concepts for myself.

If you can I need help getting a build of LibreCad to work.
Then I will play with the bug and the source code.

Thanks
