This command should become "apt-get -t testing build-dep kicad". Replace "-t testing" with "-t unstable" if you added the unstable repo. > Finally, download the source package and build it: > apt-get source kicad (will download and extract in current working > directory) This should definitely be "apt-get -t testing source kicad", unless you comment all other deb-src lines in your sources.list. Again, replace "testing" with "unstable" if you want to pull from unstable.
