The gsch2pcb > wrapper looks at .gEDA/gafrc instead. That would probably explain why I had to add -lib-newlib `pwd` to my pcb alias to make it find the footprints in my usual spot (the current dir). I find that gsch2pcb still wants to change some things in a pcb file that has just been updated with Import Schematics. Its weird little stuff: a few dimensions in a footprint are changed, and for some reason the value of a 10 ohm resistor (which for some reason ends up as 'Part number name "10"' in the Cntrl-R output for the part) ends up with a value of "10_" or "10-" (I forget which now). It looks like Import Schematics is trying to be the same as gsch2pcb and coming really close. Britton
