gEDA-user: footprint ghosts from gsch2pcb
I just ran gsch2pcb on a new project. It worked exactly as planned. Better
in fact.
The project has SOT223's. I attributed the footprints: SOT223.
Upon running the venerable gsch2pcb, I actually got SOT223's (very large ugly
ones) put into my file.pcb layout even though I haven't drawn the actual
footprint yet.
I can't locate an SOT223 in my system even though this is the name generated
by ctrl-R (object report)!
So, is there a way to tell where this came from? (m4 detritus?)
also, if I run 'gsch2pcb project' where 'project' is a project specific file
specifying the foots location:
elements-dir ~dir1/dir2/myfootprintsdirectory
Does this set priority for the footprints search?
Does gsch2pcb _not_ generate a log?
