Went to 2.5 and now I get 'exceeds maximum' errors

We are homing in on this. It seems that the error is raised by the graphical preview, not the trajectory planner, which is why the actual parts come out OK.

Moved the extents checking out of glcanon.py into gcodemodule.cc, possibly imperfectly.

I think I have found it, and I have submitted a patch to the devs. Hopefully you should be able to update soon, and make the problem go away.

Wait till the patch is pushed before you pull...

As JT said, there is no way to tell if or when the patch will be accepted. Best wait until it has been.
You could watch:
git.linuxcnc.org/gitweb?p=emc2.git;a=sho...fs/heads/v2.5_branch
To see if it gets pushed.

If your using the installed 2.4.anything it won't be there unless someone cherry picks it from master and then a bug fix will have to released and I've not seen one of those in a long time.

The upshot is you would at this point have to use master by downloading it using git and creating a RIP as shown here . I don't think that there is even a deb built of master although I know one is built for 2.5 by the buildbot.
