Default prefix is "/usr/local". pcb will install its binary into /usr/local/bin and the libs into /usr/local/lib. By default, these locations are searched first on Ubuntu, Debian and about every decent linux distro. A simple call of pcb will start the version in /usr/local/bin/pcb . If you'd prefer the distros version, you can call it with /usr/bin/pcb . So there is no need to edit the prefix variable. I have three versions of pcb installed on my desktops and use them as needed without any interference: 1) from distro 2) from the current git head 3) the GL enabled version by Peter Clifton, before_pours branch. ---<)kaimartin(>--- -- Kai-Martin Knaak tel: +49-511-762-2895 Universität Hannover, Inst. für Quantenoptik fax: +49-511-762-2211 Welfengarten 1, 30167 Hannover http://www.iqo.uni-hannover.de GPG key: http://pgp.mit.edu:11371/pks/lookup?search=Knaak+kmk&op=get _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list [email protected] http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
