I am currently doing my first gEDA PCB board and I have to say that I am
worried that footprints will be error prone. It is disheartening to hear
that someone with more gEDA experience then me, also shares that opinion. If
only there was a flag which footprints were verified on an already created
gEDA PCB....


Errors in footprint (and symbol) libraries are an EDA problem not just
a gEDA problem.
You need to verify that a footprint matches the manufacturer's specification
and your process specification. Different manufacturer's sometimes
have different
specifications for the same package style.

After I verify a footprint I move it to a "released for production"
directory. I have
gsch2pcb only use footprints from that directory.
