Hi!

Ok, redo from scratch.
I'm cleaning up the build directory now...

$ git pull
$ git checkout -f
$ rm -r build
$ cat ./go.sh
#!/bin/bash
mkdir -p build/release
cd build/release
cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release \
      -DKICAD_SCRIPTING=ON \
      -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_MODULES=ON \
      -DKICAD_SCRIPTING_WXPYTHON=ON \
      -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=~/SW \
      -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=~/SW \
      -DDEFAULT_INSTALL_PATH=~/SW \
      ../../
make -j8
make install
$ ./go.sh

Building works now, but:

$ cd ~/SW/bin
$ ./kicad

and then clicking on pcbnew delivers the same:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 3, in <module>
ImportError: No module named pcbnew

I cannot tell if that is something serious. I would just not ignore
it without understanding it.

Clemens
