Chris,

Actually, all you need is the "gaf" command-line utility, not the full 
gschem, if that is possible to install separately. It comes with gEDA. 
"gaf export" can convert an sch file to a PostScript file for printing. 
Lots of gaf arguments to configure the output, so read the manpage. I 
use it in a script to convert to PostScript and then use pstoedit to 
convert that to DXF for QCAD input.

My Slackware 14.2 has guile 2.0.11 and a while back, gEDA switched to a 
later guile (2.2?) which broke my installation process. A new gEDA 
version 1.10.2 was then released to work with guile 2.0 again. If you 
need to use guile 2.2, then I advise you check for that previous version 
of gEDA (1.10.1?). If you are trying to install gEDA 1.10.2 with guile 
2.2, then building it from source will not help you. You need that 
previous gEDA version for guile 2.2.

BTW: I build gEDA Slackware install packages from source. I have zero 
experience with ubuntu.

HTH.
