Console based processing would have to work as usual, perhaps throwing a stderr / stdout warning that there might be out-dated footprints for certain files. There could also be a command line option / tool which specifically checks these things and returns 0 / 1 / whatever, so you can make further processing conditional on everything being "happy". In the case of divergent footprints / symbols which the user _wants_, I'd imagine the GUI action to express this would then take the desired symbol and dissociate it from the library copy, either giving it a different name, or just flagging so in the file. There could be a hash-code of the confirmed version stashed in the layout / schematic which just ensures no further prompting unless the library version changes again. -- Peter Clifton Electrical Engineering Division, Engineering Department, University of Cambridge, 9, JJ Thomson Avenue, Cambridge CB3 0FA Tel: +44 (0)7729 980173 - (No signal in the lab!) _______________________________________________ geda-dev mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-dev
