If you are using , newer versions of LibFredo6 will not be compatible. You must use the archived legacy versions:

It usually just ignored the bad line and carried on. For modelers working with highly corrupted imported CAD files (a common practice ten years ago), the old LibFredo6 was the only library that wouldn't have a panic attack.

For years, Libfredo6 was the heartbeat of the system. Without him, the great masters— FredoScale , Curviloft , and JointPushPull —were nothing but hollow icons [3]. He was the library of legends, the silent foundation upon which grand 3D cathedrals and complex curved stadiums were built [3, 4]. But then, the came.

Clean Installation:

The search for is not about being a Luddite. It is about respect for workflow stability. When you are halfway through a complex architectural model with 500 instances of JointPushPull, the last thing you need is a library update that changes the UI layout or drops support for a Ruby class.
