If you're running PCB+GL, you must have grabbed it from git at some
point.

If you had your original checkout, you might just run a "git fetch" in
that directory

then:

git checkout -b before_pours_local origin/before_pours


Alternatively, if the git checkout is lost, start from scratch..

git clone git://repo.or.cz/geda-pcb/pcjc2.git
git checkout -b before_pours_local origin/before_pours

then run ./autogen.sh, ./configure, etc...

aclocal is just complaining I think. What appears to be missing is part
of your PCB checkout.

Try "cvs up" again.

See the above git examples for how to check it out.
