Since Debian Testing/Unstable has Kicad packages version 20100314, one thing you could attempt is to backport it yourself to Lenny, Debian has some pretty easy to use tools for that. First, add the source repositories of Testing or Unstable (or both) to your /etc/apt/sources.list file: deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ unstable main contrib non-free and/or deb-src http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/ testing main contrib non-free I use the German mirrors, you could replace that with anything you want to use. Then issue an apt-get update (as root) to get the updated list of (source packages). Before you can build it, you should install any needed development libraries: apt-get build-dep kicad (as root) Finally, download the source package and build it: apt-get source kicad (will download and extract in current working directory) cd kicad-0.0.20100314 (version could change) dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us (as root, or using fakeroot) The last command, when it finishes it will produce all the .deb packages of kicad, which you can install graphically, or with dpkg -i. After you're done, you could remove the deb-src line(s) from sources.list and re-run apt-get update, or keep it in case you want to backport other packages as well.

Before you can build it, you should install any needed development libraries: apt-get build-dep kicad (as root) I forgot a couple of details: 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. Dimitris Please read the Kicad FAQ in the group files section before posting your question. Please post your bug reports here.

Since Debian Testing/Unstable has Kicad packages version 20100314, one thing you could attempt is to backport it yourself to Lenny, Debian has some pretty easy to use tools for that. The problem is that 20100314 has a couple of nasty bugs* I'm bumping into and requires a cascade of dependencies - I just pulled ALL the dependencies from testing and it works - didn't appear to break anything else. So what I don't know is how to drop in the 20100505 tar ball and make a new package. * (Field input above F11, deleting of footprint, a file deletion. - I think all fixed now) Karl Schmidt EMail k...@xtronics.com Transtronics, Inc.

[kicad-users] How to compile new KiCAD on Debian stable (lenny)?
Lenny has rather old version of KiCad, I'm trying to compile new version of Kicad, but there are few errors prohibit that. Mainly Bazaar is missing is not available for lenny. Anyone tried to compile KiCad on Lenny? Is it possible to get newest version of Kicad on lenny? I appreciate your help. Gardner

Gardner I got Bazaar to work on Lenny using this: deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/qbzr-dev/ppa/ubuntu jaunty main Also put in sources for testing and You want to end up with these: qbzr 0.18.1-1~qbzr1~jaunty1 pyqt-tools 3.17.4-1 pyqt4-dev-tools 4.4.2-4 bzr 2.1.1-1 You will need to run bzr launchpad-login your_launchpad_user_id and set up an ssh key. I haven't done any package building and ran out of steam when I realized there is a diff package that I don't know how to create. I would really appreciate Debian pkg support.. Can I offer any bribes? (trying to focus on a design and creating kicad notes - this is really diffusing my focus - I'm not that young anymore..)
