I would also recommend checking out salome. It has a parametric CAD module like you would be used to in SolidWorks. It felt a little less finicky to me than freecad , and I also think it has more controllable STL generation compared to freecad.

I think sometime went wrong with your KDE frameworks description. Looks like the some python notes got in there instead.

Love seeing all the updates! OpenSUSE has been working great for me.
