The Prusa3D fork of Slic3r is nearing a big new release (1.42.0) and that stream of development has made it into the beta phase. While they didn't bump the version much from 1.41.3, this new version is significantly different because it jettisons the last of the Perl code and has an updated interface. It also adds support for Prusa's new MSLA printer, the SL1.
I have the package building and the end result seems to work relatively well on my F29 system. I've been able to plate and slice some models without difficulty. However, there's plenty of cleanup to do and I haven't dealt with the pile of bundled libraries at all. I do know that the license tag is quite wrong, but I'm pretty sure it's also wrong in the current Fedora release.
Also of interest is that the software much prefers to build with wxGTK3 3.1. Of course, we only have 3.0 in Fedora.
I think they've renamed the settings directory, and to something different than we were renaming it to. It's probably better to just stick to the upstream naming now even if this means that users may have to reconfigure or rename.
The work is visible in my fork: https://src.fedoraproject.org/fork/tibbs/rpms/slic3r-prusa3d

Thanks. Let me know how can I help. I suppose we should not update this in stable Fedoras unless there would really be a strong demand.
