Got the pcb git repository updated and build done.

DRC dialog window shows upon checking DRC and reports 24 violations on
the example/LED2 board.

I get the following warnings all the time (I guess about 24 times on
each redraw of the DRC dialog window) on the console I started pcb from.

<warning snippet>

(pcb:23590): Gtk-WARNING **: Failed to set cell text from markup due to
error parsing markup: Attribute 'font_size' is not allowed on the <span>
tag on line 2 char 25

</warning snippet>

The first time the DRC dialog window opens it had the size of a postage
stamp, on subsequent sessions it opened full screen.

Resizing the DRC dialog window works as expected.

On the screen shot you can seen that there appears no textual
information stating the nature of the violation.

Hope this all helps a bit.

Keep up the Good Work (TM).

Kind regards,

bert Timmerman.
