If you are looking for a way to make gEDA footprints, there's a Python script by Darrell Harmon that can generate PCB footprints from a simple script. You can change key paramaters from the script (pad size, number of pads, etc) pretty easily. It's also not too hard to modify the Python code, if a script is not powerful enough. See:
