A component is a term used for the generic part, like a 10k resistor, a 7474

A part on the opposite side is a one to one relationship, unique to a single

To get a baseline, I just build KiCad from scratch.
I just upgraded to OS X Yosemite, refreshed all my MacPorts for the dev tools,
and I am using Xcode 6.1,
clang 6.1.1,
Cmake 3.0.2,
make 3.81,
wxwidgets 3.0.2.
Jean-Pauls-MacBook-Pro-3:Soft_Dev jean-paullouis$ cmake --version
cmake version 3.0.2
I will try the build of boost 1.54 with all the KiCad patches first, then I
will try the stock 1.57 later.

Hi Adam,
I tried homebrew when I started using OS X, but got frustrated and switched to
macports, and never looked back.
I found a page that seems to help a lot for macports users. See below.
When I am done with the migration, I will restart building cicada, and let you
know what method I am usi
I think that it is what happened to me. I had boost 1.55 AND 1.56 installed in
my machine, and the cmake was forcing a build of 1.54.
When I removed the 1.55 and the 1.56, things got a lot better, and the builds
succeeded.
I cannot check right now, as I am upgrading to OS X Yosemite (10.10.1),
that needs to be added, that may or may not be properly

Hi Bernhard,
I plan to upgrade my OS X to Yosemite.
Can you confirm that KiCad will build properly under OS X 10.10?
Is there anything that I need to be aware of when upgrading the toolchain?
Any advice is welcome as I am nowhere near an OS X guru.
Regards,
Jean-Paul

Nick,
The KiCad build process calls for Boost 1.54.
When will we be able to use 1.57?
Just curious,

Adam,
I’m glad you picked #2. That’s what make the most sense.

I agree with Wayne’s opinion.
Everything in a single package is a lot less frustrating for new users.

To me, that really look like feature creep.
you rarely need everything from 4 to 64 pins, and then why stop at 64?
The idea of a library is that you can pick what you need, not what you can do
just because you can.
Most of my work life, I was pushing design engineers to reduce the number of

Hi Nick,
The best would be to tune the github plugin to do just that. Access the
footprints from git and have them stored locally, so changes would be faster,
and user could work when not online.
I thought that it was planned to have that working already (github access with
local storage of dat
Adam,
I do not have this problem with BZR5236. I will try the latest one and let you
know
