Hello,

I wanted to install KiCAD so I downloaded & extracted the kicad.zip file from the KCP repo. In the extracted folder i ran makepkg -si & after a few steps (36%) the installation aborted. the error message at the end of the installation log is: http://pastebin.com/MSBMLjbZ

Then I tried with the kcp -i kicad command directly from terminal, in that case the installation was aborted at 43%. The install log is: http://pastebin.com/eVJQ9nZ3

After searching in google I found this bug which is resolved in the next commits. I would request to kindly update the KiCAD package in the KCP repo.

Please suggest a fix.

Open PKGBUILD file and change line 3 to looks like

pkgver=4.0.3

Then makepkg -si

Thanks bvbfan for your response, I tried with the above line, then another error occurred regarding the mentioned md5sum in the PKGBUILD file.

Copied the correct md5sum of kicad-4.0.3 package from launchpad (https://launchpad.net/kicad/+download). Now the integrity check passed but the installation process stucked at the previous place again. http://pastebin.com/x8AgxH3M

modified PKGBUILD dump: http://pastebin.com/iVFsm957

On a different note, I would like to ask if there is any way that the latest kicad package (4.0.4) released in launchpad can be installed in my KaOS installation?
