Hi What is the plan for the python footprint wizrards [1]?
I was trying to figure out how they were supposed to be installed, as it looks now, it seems that they are not installed by cmake [3]. I see that the eeschema bom pluings (the xsl files [2]) are intalled with cmake, but that [1] is not, although it seems like they sould be installed if we look at [3], but only if APPLE. And it seemt hat if not __MINGW32__ or __WXMAC__ then we use the completely hardcoded path on linux to /usr/local/kicad/bin/scripting/plugins ! [4]. Although I can put them in ~/.kicad_plugins and they will work too. But I am not exactly sure where this is defined. So what is the desired way to fix this issue? As is now it makes it difficult to package the footprint wizards, because it is not instlaled with cmake nor is there a dynamic path defined on linux.
