Re: gEDA-user: 2 make errors installing gwave

["KURT PETERS" <peterskurt@xxxxxxx>]

Al,
  I just checked again.  Where is it requested?  I checked both bug reports 
and feature request.
Don't see it under either.  Under features, I just see (most of which are 
already supported):
" Several Y axis for plot differents waves with different range, for
example I(0-10mA), V(0-10V), power consumption P(0-1mW)

- Plot "only" composed waves: A*B, A/B, A-B...

- More precision to set marks, for example: In last plot I can't to set a
mark between 8,7 mA and 9,3 mA, I want a mark in 9 mA.

- Delete marks.

- Average waveform, for example for power consumption.

- Change legend to waveform. "

It doesn't matter whether I am or not.  If kjwaves depends on
non-free software some distributions won't include it.  Whether
you like it or not, we need to deal with it.  We cannot tell
them to use another distribution just for this.  Telling a user
to install a special version of Java is no better than telling
them to install a special version of guile.

It has been requested here.  The original poster is using
gnucap.  Gnucap is the main simulator here.

We all know that gwave has a problem, but I have never seen it
crash the OS.  The worst I have seen is failure to build due to
not having the correct version of guile installed.

I really want to be able to recommend kjwaves without
reservation.  You need to take care of these problems.
