Obviously. I'm ironing out a few things still but I think most of the old problems were solved in snapd in the meantime. Snaps have channels for testing packages before releasing them as stable, so I guess that would be a good idea to to use for thorough testing... Cheers Max Am Fr., 15. März 201

I've published two packages to the store for testing: ``` kicad5 kicad5-3dpackages ``` You can install them like so ``` sudo snap install kicad5 kicad5-3dpackages # or save some space by leaving out kicad5-3dpackages ``` Those snaps are not listed in the store search results and are intended only

I think it makes sense to put it under the github project such that it is easier for other people to find it and make fixes if needed in the future. But before this happens I would like to make sure it works properly and it is a think that can seamlessly supported. Does snaps not work over X forw

Ok, cool, thank you. It does seem to start. One thing that I was wondering about was; why are the pcb_calculator and pl_editor named with a dash instead of an underscore on the commandline? Also, I see there are no project templates available. FWIW, further discussion of minor issues should prob
