Re: gEDA-user: Install Log

["Ed & Angie S." <edangies@tx.rr.com>]

Stuart,

Thanks for the quick response.

I checked my system and libxaw7 is installed.  There is a package called 
libxaw7-dev that is not installed; could this be the problem?

I don't know whether Debian removed bzlib recently or not but I can get it 
installed I think.

Once these dependency issues are solved, how should I go about reinstalling 
ngspice and icarus verilog?  Can I simply rerun the installer and it will 
figure out which is already installed correctly?  ngspice doesn't seem to 
have any files under bin.  There are couple iverilog files under bin so it 
seems it was partially installed.  Should I delete the verilog binaries?

Ed
