Re: gEDA-user: modified net "L" drawing [ was Topics discussed ... ]

Hi Ales (and all),

I'm interested to check your new "L knitting", i.e., build from the CVS
but...
Can you please check in the configure scripts too?

The FreeBSD port collection only includes:
autoconf-2.13, autoconf-2.53, autoconf-2.59
automake-1.4.6, automake-1.5, automake-1.9.6

On an up to date FreeBSD geda releases build easily.

Thanks, Enoch.
