This might be a bit off topic - I would like to know what distro and what branch is used to Kicad development.
Background - I use Linux only for development of embedded systems, and would like to get relatively recent copies of Kicad, Spice, Code::Blocks, OpenOCD, GDB, etc. But every off the shelf distro seems to only have two year old releases of at least one of these packages and as a result, when I try to install from source I run into innumerable library problems because of the old libraries that are invariably required. I will say at the moment, I'm not sure that Kicad is one of the packages I use that requires cutting edge libraries; but, I am trying to get ready for the next rebuild of my PC. I don't want to become a Linux systems guru, I want to remain an embedded developer; so is there an off the shelf distro that is used for development of Kicad? Cheers Mike
