Re: eeschema GAL renderer (with old tools)

 

Is it really from 2014?

I couldn't build it, the latest problems were from boost and bzr. It didn't
succeed with the system's boost, and bazaar says:
bzr: ERROR: unknown command "patch"

Could this be made to work on top of the latest code? The build system
would already be set up.
