A major update of Joomla was necessary, as the previous version was no longer maintained.
This update involved many other changes, such as the Joomla template, and the download system.
WARNING: This had very little impact on users. Nevertheless, the paths used to download example files in automatic tests have changed, so if you run ctest with one of the binaries built on or before September 19, 2023, some tests will fail. You'll need to download the example files manually for these tests to work.
CloudCompare works as it is (no specific environment). It is located in CloudComPy310/CloudCompare/CloudCompare.app and can be launched from the Finder.
CloudComPy need a Python 3.10 configuration with at least the following packages, either with conda or not:
numpy
scipy
requests
psutils
matplotlib
You can create an environment for CloudComPy with conda, from the terminal (here, I chose to activate conda environment on demand: please adapt the instructions to your installation) The following package list corresponds to the building environment, but you can adjust the list (at least the above list):
conda activate
conda update -y -n base -c defaults conda
If your environment CloudComPy310 does not exist:
conda create --name CloudComPy310 python=3.10
# --- erase previous env with the same name if existing

This binary requires also libomp.so.5 installed on the system: for ubuntu
sudo apt-get install libomp5
Only tested un Ubuntu 20.04, please report any problems on other distributions.
WARNING On Windows, with the binary based on the conda packages, Python 3.10, only the English version of CloudCompare is available, the translations are not available: it seems that this is due to a bug in the Qt 5.15.4 version of the conda package. We are waiting for the correction of this bug in the packaging.
This version brings the following features:
