Windows is the problem child. Since the footprint library table implementation, the fp-lib-table file is stored as text file on Windows in appropriate user's application data path . In other words the output of wxStandardPaths::GetUserConfigDir() with the kicad path appended to it. I would prefer to save all of the Windows configuration in separate files in the same path. It would require some significant changes to the way configuration settings are saved on Windows. I'm may get around to it one of these days since I too think that KiCad adds too many files to the ~/ folder on Linux. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
[Kicad-developers] testing has been renamed to product
The testing branch has been renamed to product. This may make some links in your repo/.bzr/branch/branch.conf files errant. If you have a checkout, i.e. bound branch from the testing repo, see if $ bzr up stops working. If not, no worries. If it does stop working: you can either edit this file with a text editor, or often an easier solution is to go into your working tree and do: $ bzr bind lp:kicad which will cause bzr to edit the said file for you itself refreshing the link to the product branch. If you had used lp:kicad originally to checkout the branch, there is a change it will still work. lp:kicad seems to be like a neutral alias to what was testing and now is product. This change was discussed by the lead developers at length and it was felt that the name testing was too foreboding, and was scaring people away from using it. The stable branch often has more bugs in it than testing does. I regret ever creating it. The lifetime of a bug in product is usually shorter. We wanted more folks using what is now product, so that the bug lifetime would even get shorter, you know, more eyes and testers. Wayne and Jean-Pierre may identify periods of quiet, or increased reliability within the product branch, so that you can take your production snapshots during those periods.

I don't have commit rights to his winbuilder, but he is on the mailing list so he should have received the notification. It can't be more than a line or two. Using lp:kicad in references to this branch gives some amount of immunity, as that lp:kicad seems to be treated like a symlink at launchpad. This sym-linking like behaviour may be new however within bzr or launchpad. ___ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers Post to : kicad-developers@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~kicad-developers More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
