Hi DJ,

With the hope this helps someone else in the future, I had to do the  
following to get the tutorial to work and avoid the
6 file elements and 0 m4 elements added to board.pcb message

and get the tutorial message:
0 file elements and 7 m4 elements added to board.pcb.

I had to execute this command in the project1 directory as laid out in  
the tutorial:
gsch2pcb -v --m4-pcbdir "/usr/local/share/pcb/m4" project

You don't need the -v once you get things rolling, but it is handy for  
seeing what gsch2pcb is doing.

Best Regards,
Chris
