Mesa Configuration Tool

Hi,
thanks a lot for all the very helpful work,

Since I don't have a git account I am filing here a little bug report for the mesact configuration tool ( great stuff by the way !):

When trying to reopen the tool I got the following error:

File os.py line 225, in makedirs
["FileExistsError: [Errno 17] File exists: '/home/mitad/.config/measct'\n"]

It seems that /measct cannot be overwritten on reopening, if I delete the folder manually mesact opens normally.

Sorry if this report is not at the right place, feel free to move/delete it.

yes latest version from master/ mesact_0.7.0_amd64.deb

Apparently it is because I didn't finish up to validation before closing the program the first time. Now that I have completed a configuration I don't get the error anymore

FYI - not sure if it is intended to be a functioning tool yet but the latest tool appears to have a bug that prevents building the config file:

I set the bare minimum configuration to build the tool, and the last error is as follows:

That's with an XYZ configuration (no tandem axis). If I change it to an XYYZ configuration (joint 0,1,2,3 respectively) then it will change the error to something like:
If you set scale to -1 OR reverse direction (but not both) you continue getting this error. If you set scale to -1 AND reverse direction you get a new, additional error stating that you must pick one or the other.
 

I wanted to create a configuration for a 5i25 + 7i85s.
It seems that the 7i85s is not fully supported yet.
I get this when trying to select the 7i85s:

And in the Axes tab it still says 7i77


Furthermore I wonder about the meaning of the bit/pin files in the 5i25/holding folder. Are those the not yet supported ones?

A comment on the commit "fix checking for linuxcnc version I hope"
If I set the localization to en, then it works for me. But with German locale if didn't work because your query gives this:

Not sure how to get this fixed multilangual.
