I als did a 2nd test, adding a "-m test.scm" scheme file that sets the parameters as gsch2pcb would (ie. setting gsch2pcb:use-m4 #t etc.). Then the resulting file contains all my footprings, ready to be opened by PCB. > I get a file test.output, which lists all components: > [..] looks the same for me, too. > Do your missing components appear in this list?

Sorry, I'm having the problem with a design that is somewhat a work for hire, so I don't have copyrights or permission to distribute schematics etc. :( > One last common gotcha.. do any of your compoennt footprints have "-" > in them?

Me too :) I already went over the gsch2pcb sources, without seeing any obvious problems. The next step will be GDB. Hopefully Ubuntu's packages were compiled with debug information enabled. cheers, David -- GnuPG public key: http://user.cs.tu-berlin.de/~dvdkhlng/dk.gpg Fingerprint: B17A DC95 D293 657B 4205 D016 7DEF 5323 C174 7D40 _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
