Thanks to the Debian guys (Dima and Bdale) they are usually updated within a week or two after a stable release. Of course this won't help if you want the latest development version (svn HEAD). AFAIK pcb-rnd has no PPA anywhere. To get PPAs, someone with the skills and available hacking time is needed to set one up. > (in the screencap of the recent project manager thingy it looks ... > very 90s), but I want to try the thing without having to compile it. I am not sure what you mean here. If you mean the project manager itself (the blue toolbar on the top; btw, the project manager is not part of pcb-rnd): the look is determined by PNG files. The ones on the video are the ones I've drawn. I am not a graphics designer, obviously. Contribution (another set of PNGs) is welcome. If you mean how the widgets look in pcb-rnd, gschem or gerbv: they are all just gtk2 - how they look depends on the local theme. What you see on the video is the theme on my system. Pcb-rnd on your system would probably look much like mainline pcb, using the same gtk lib and the same gtk theme. > I'll try to get it to build in a PPA of my own if it's been excluded > intentionally. I recommend losing the part after the "if". If you can and want, just do the PPAs, publish them and let me know about them. As an upstream developer, I try to do all sort of reasonable fixes for problems packagers report. Regards, Igor2
