Hi,
I am pleased to announce the first official release of the gEDA Binary
Suite. This binary suite has the following features:
* Should work on any GNU/Linux distribution released after
July 2001.
* Will not interfere with your distribution's executables and
libraries.
* Installs and runs completely user space. Does not require
root access to install or run.
* Installation is a simple shell script and runs quickly.
* Uninstall is a simple recursive delete.
* Currently contains the following programs from the gEDA
project:
- gEDA/gaf (gschem and friends) v1.4.0
- gerbv v2.0.1
- pcb (both the gtk+ and lesstif versions) v20080202
- xgsch2pcb v0.1.2
* Right now, xgsch2pcb is also linked to the executable name "geda".
* As discussed earlier on this list, I have linked things up so that
you can type: geda<TAB> and see a listing of all the toplevel
programs in the suite. I will be expanding this list as time
goes on.
* The simulation programs will be added later if I can solve some
fundamental install and runtime issues.
* Allows the gEDA developers to move forward with more modern
versions of the various dependencies. :-)
