Hello Peter,
I'm using the following ppa, on a Linux Mint 17.2 distribution (64-bit):
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/mehanik/geda-unstable/ubuntu trusty main
Should I disable this source, remove the current geda-gaf packages, and
reinstall geda-gaf from another source? I'm a bit wary of messing around
in this way -- in my experience, it sometimes breaks more than it fixes.
For this reason, I decided to ask for advice first instead.
It is also a bit puzzling that I appear to be the only one experiencing
trouble -- could it have something to do with Linux Mint itself? I'm
having some other weird problems with gschem lately, possibly related to
the GTK+ version in this distribution (see
https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/1485199 ).
Anyway, I'd very much like to have a working installation again, and
preferably a rather recent one. If all else fails, I can always compile
gschem from the git source myself, but I prefer to install it through
package management.
Thank you for your reply and for any advice already,
Best regards,
Richard Rasker
