Good evening,
I hope I am addressing the correct list here; if it's not the case,
please ignore this mail and send me to the correct place...
I am a long (really... ) user of xcircuit which I find the best software
for drawing circuits; it's the only one where I am even faster than
drawing freehand.
I am testing now Ubuntu Gnome 14.04; and this morning I was checking
xcircuit (which has seen an upgrade from 3.7.24 to 3.7.55) and I
discovered that my libraries (and I think some of my files) are read
incorrectly. I am almost sure that this is my error or a distro error,
but I was not able to find the problem.
I have one $HOME/.xcircuitrc-3.7 which has this structure (complete
file: http://paste.ubuntu.com/7191781/ ):
global XCOps
set XCOps(liboverride) 1
library make generic ;# create empty library 1
library make utility ;# create empty library 2
library 1 load generic
library 1 load analog -replace
library 1 load digital -replace
config search lib ".:/home/romano/lib/xcircuit:$XCIRCUIT_LIB_DIR"
library 2 load utility
set XCOps(spiceend) false
set XCOps(schema) false
...and the utility.lps file is the following one (start of it, complete
file at http://paste.ubuntu.com/7191797/ ):
%! PostScript set of library objects for XCircuit
% Version: 3.1
% Library name is: utility.lps

} def
this works ok (since at least ten years...) in my Ubuntu 13.10 xcircuit
3.7.22 version. This is the library loaded: http://imgur.com/SSunsym
Now I checked the same in Ubuntu 14.10, with xcircuit 3.7.55, and I have
this fearful result: http://imgur.com/2iNnABw
As you can see, I have a lot of errors of the kind "parameter arrowhead
was used but not defined" which make me suspicious of some kind of bad
installation. Can anyone help me on this? Thank you very much!
