It does that indeed, but


   Why should it pull gnetlist ? It doesn't call gnetlist.

I think it does, as it it generates the netlist to feed to pcb?



Personally, geda should pull in geda-xgsch2pcb which in turn pulls in
everything it needs.

   It might be a good idea to put geda-xgsch2pcb in geda's Recommends or
   Suggests.
Yeah, after installing geda, the main 'program' to use is probably 
geda-xgsch2pcb, as that sort of is the 'project manager' for geda. Users 
are probably confused enough that after they install geda, they still 
have to figure out how to tie it all together.

Bug#773410: geda-xgsch2pcb does not pull in geda or gschem as a dependcy.

2014-12-17 Thread Olliver Schinagl
Package: geda-xgsch2pcb
Version: 0.1.3-2
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,

When wanting to do PCB design with the geda suite without pulling in the entire
science-electronics meta package, then geda can be a solution. However the
geda-meta package does not pull in geda-xgsch2pcb. Reversibly (and worse) geda-
xgsch2pcb does not pull in geda (or gschem for that matter). Since xgsch2pcb is
a tool to make the transistion from geda schema's which are made in gschem, to
pcb, gschem (and more, like gnetllist, gattrib etc etc) are requried for geda-
xgsch2pcb to work properly.

Personally, geda should pull in geda-xgsch2pcb which in turn pulls in
everything it needs. Alternativily, geda-xgsch2pcb becomes a single dependancy
of geda, without any dependancies of its own, as the tool does not _require_
anything, The buttons only execute the installed binaries, hence the useless-
ness of the program if the binaries are missing.
