Re: gEDA-user: PCB SYNTAX ERROR BROKEN PIPE
>From dpkg -l I have gEDA gschem 20050313-1 and pcb 1.99j+20050127-2.
I'll remoot and give you the report of pcb --version, but I hope you
have enough to go on.
The error message of "stdin17: m4: Bad expression in eval: /4" is
repeated a ton of times and I halt it with a control-C. This does not
happen with my old .sch designs that I reran through gsch2pcb, just the
ones I am working like crazy this week.
I worked the past 4+ hours downloading, trying to burn a live CD and
reinstalling gEDA, with no success yet. I still have the original 2005
live CD with the above versions working in the state that I described so
far.
Thanks a lot for your input, all of you.
Best regards,
Frank
