Fwd: Re: Aw: Re: cvpcb - Cannot assign footprints in netlist

 

Okay, yes thats the error.
But where the KIGITHUB variable has to be set?
Am I right in the assumption that this must be set at compile time?
If not, where I have to set these? And where to get those github libraries?

Maybe the package should be changed not to confuse also other users.

Read section 5.2 in the cvpcb manual. You have not set the KIGITHUB environment variable.

        What is your footprint shource? Are you using the github
        plugin or are
        you having all the .pretty files locally?
