I've just pushed a small update to the README file which describes the
necessary step to recreate the autoconf files.

The output from automake and autoconf are not stored in the .git
repository.

The usual way to regenerate that is to run ./autogen.sh in the toplevel
dir (gschem, libgeda etc..)

As we don't need anything special in that script for xgsch2pcb, we
didn't include one, instead run:

autoreconf

in the source directory. (The autoreconf program is part of autoconf.)

Peter Clifton

Hi Peter and all,

I just git cloned the repo and read the README file.

It says to do:

./configure && make install

It looks like there is no file named "configure" in the repository.

Is this because it is mentioned in the ".gitignore" file ?

How to go further on xgsch2pcb ?

Kind regards,

Bert Timmerman.

Btw, if you plan to sue a deb based system on i386, I have some .debs
recently packaged with CVS version of PCB compiled with DBUS and
latest version of xgsch2pcb.

The project manager has been deprecated for some time now, and was
removed from releases as it is no longer developed or maintained. I'm
not totally familiar with the problems it had, however I'm assured it
did have some issues.

If you're looking for a GUI tool for the gschem -> PCB workflow, the new
(and not yet officially released) xgsch2pcb tool might be of interest.
At the moment, only development versions exist in the git repository:

http://git.gpleda.org/?p=xgsch2pcb.git;a=summary

NB: You must also use a relatively recent version of PCB, and
specifically compile it with DBus support. (This allows xgsch2pcb to
push changes from the schematic into a live, open copy of your layout.
It doesn't work without this support).

Peter Clifton
