Re: gEDA-user: PCB SYNTAX ERROR BROKEN PIPE

It looks like pcb does not like in the .pcb files lines starting with
PKG_

It was written in my email 1.99j+200580127-2

It produced no output.

I changed the footprint to a SIP4 which eliminated the line. The pcb
progrm found the same kind of error on line 88 of .pcb with  "PKG_SO14
(SO14, U7, unknown)".  I do need however those footprints. The beef I
have here is that SO14 is not a custom made footprint, it comes prebuilt
with the software.

I erased the .pcb files generated by gsch2pcb each time.

Could the PKG commands in .pcb be a new one that is not supported by my
version of pcb? 
I am running of a live Knoppix DVD so I could not mess the config files
up.
