Re: [Kicad-developers] Packaging note: new data file
Hi all, May be this should be into bug reports, but since I've seen some mail about this argument directly here, I just answer to those. If I have to file a bug report (if it really is a bug and I did not just miss some environment variable to be set) please let me know. Compiling and installing in a "non canonical directory" as a normal user, the file is created and put in the correct place, in my case in ~/SANDBOXKICAD5/usr/share/kicad/resources but the file is not opened at startup, with the error message: can't open file 'share/kicad/resources/images.tar.gz' (error 2: No such file or directory) It seems it is missing the first part of the path, just like if the CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX is not prepended to the file path that kicad uses when executed. Launching kicad from terminal after going into the ~/SANDBOXKICAD5/usr directory makes the program start correctly with all icons and no error message. I tried deleting the ~/.config/kicad, to simulate a fresh-new start, but Deleting that makes kicad not to start with a segmentation fault (may be this is a real bug). Some other details: The configuration has been re-generated before building with cmake-gui ../ then make clean make make install Cheers, Dino. P.S.: I'm Using debian Linux 10, installing as a user without root privileges, under my home directory.

Re: [Kicad-developers] Packaging note: new data file
Is there a quick test to see if it's working end-to-end? Something in
KiCad that'll work only if this is working and is found?

[Kicad-developers] Packaging note: new data file
Hi all,
As of 18037e2f, a new data file is generated during build that contains
image resources for KiCad.
This file should be installed to ${KICAD_DATA}/resources/images.tar.gz (So,
something like /usr/share/kicad/resources/images.tar.gz on Linux).
There is an install target for this in the cmake file now, so this *should*
be done automatically, but I wanted to give a heads-up in case any of the
nightly packages require manual modification when the build artifacts
change.
Best,
Jon
