Re: gEDA-user: First install and a tragesym problem

[vidtech <vidtech@xxxxxxx>]

Hi Peter,

before your post I already started with the ISO disk and an old PC from
scratch. A quick fresh Etch and a bucket load of additional libs ran
through with only minor glitches. The end result YES gEDA up and running.
Next step will be to transplant this installation on the productive
system, but that shouldn't pose to much of a problem.
Thanks for your support,
