Hi Bob, The symbols and help are in a different repository. Right now, there isn't a good way to incorporate them into the bundling process.
My OSX builder does it out of cmake. I don't really like that, but it was the fastest way to results. I do not think my patch for OS X search paths was accepted yet (but I don't remember), so you might have to manually apply that patch even if you copy help files to the right location. The files are in the kicad-library repository. It's on github, at https://github.com/KiCad/kicad-library. If you check that out, and do a cmake of the libraries, and copy the library output to /Library/Application Support/kicad/library, libraries should show up. This is a bit of a mess on OS X, to say the least. We know, and we're working on it :) In my osx builder, it creates a kicad-extras dmg that contains the checked out github footprints, for folks who don't have a net connection always (or don't like using the ones on github). FWIW, here's an image of the current output of my osx builder: https://www.dropbox.com/s/qeexd3eppfssuzi/Screen%20Shot%202015-01-02%20at%202.21.29%20PM.png?dl=0 Adam Wolf Cofounder and Engineer W&L On Jan 11, 2015 2:57 PM, "Bob Gustafson" <[email protected]> wrote: > I think the info below describes my ‘most up-to-date’ OS X build.
