Greetings, new subscriber;

Using gEDA as in the debian wheezy repo's, although I was able to get a 
newer pcb to build, so it is 1.99z.

I have composed a little 6 part schematic in gschem, but when I do the 
translation gsch2pcb step, 4 of the 6 parts I chose schematic symbols 
for, have no "footprint" and are omitted from the pcb.  Loaded into pcb, 
it obviously makes no sense to this beginner.

Can this data be added to the library part description?

If so how?  And if I do it, how can I submit back to gEDA?

Thanks.

Cheers, Gene Heskett
