Performing substitutions during post-patch breaks tools such as mkpatches,
making it very difficult to regenerate correct patches after making changes,
and often leading to substituted string replacements being committed.

| Hi Adam-
|
| You will need to downgrade to CMake 3.10 or lower. In 3.11, they revised
| the internals of CheckSymbolExists.
|
| Our macro depends on the internal CMake macro _CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS (note
| the underscore at the beginning). In 3.11, they replaced it with
| __CHECK_SYMBOL_EXISTS_IMPL.

What’s new in MyHDL 0.10
The block decorator
Rationale
The historical approach for hierarchy extraction in MyHDL suffers from
significant issues. This results in complex code, a number of non-intuitive API
concepts, and difficulties for future development.
In this release, a new block decorator is introduced to address these issues.
For an in-depth discussion, see mep-114.
API
block() :noindex:
The block decorator enables a method-based API which is more consistent,
simplifies implementation, and reduces the size of the myhdl namespace.
The methods work on block instances, created by calling a function
decorated with the block decorator:
@block
def myblock(<ports>):
...
return <instances>
inst = myblock(<port-associations>)
# inst supports the methods of the block instance API
The API on a block instance looks as follows:
<block_instance>.run_sim(duration=None)
Run a simulation “forever” (default) or for a specified duration.
<block_instance>.config_sim(backend='myhdl', trace=False)
- Optional simulation configuration:
- backend: Defaults to ‘myhdl
- trace: Enable waveform tracing, default False.
<block_instance>.quit_sim()
Quit an active simulation. This is method is currently required because
only a single simulation can be active.
<block_instance>.convert(hdl='Verilog', **kwargs)
- Converts MyHDL code to a target HDL.
- hdl: ‘VHDL’ or ‘Verilog’. Defaults to Verilog.
- Supported keyword arguments:
- path: Destination folder. Defaults to current working dir.
- name: Module and output file name. Defaults to self.mod.__name__.
- trace: Whether the testbench should dump all signal waveforms. Defaults to
False.
- testbench: Verilog only. Specifies whether a testbench should be created.
Defaults to True.
- timescale: timescale parameter. Defaults to ‘1ns/10ps’. Verilog only.
<block_instance>.verify_convert()
Verify conversion output, by comparing target HDL simulation log with MyHDL
simulation log.
<block_instance>.analyze_convert()
Analyze conversion output by compilation with target HDL compiler.
Backwards compatibility issues
In the 0.10 release, the old API still available next to the new API based on
the block decorator.
It is likely that the old API will be deprecated in a future release, resulting
in backwards incompatibility for legacy code. Therefore, users are encouraged
to start using the new API in their development methodology.
gdsCAD is a simple, but powerful, Python package for creating, reading, and
manipulating GDSII layout files. It's suitable for scripting and interactive
use. It excels particularly in generating designs with multiple incrementally
adjusted objects. gdsCAD uses matplotlib to visualize everything from individual
geometry primitives to the entire layout.

Release Notes for gerbv-2.6.2
========================================================================
This is a minor patch release on top of gerbv-2.6.1. The change
is to property create the tarball with the build framework so that
the automake/autoconf/etc generated files are included.
========================================================================
Release Notes for gerbv-2.6.0
========================================================================
The following is a summary of the changes which went into gerbv-2.6.0.
For a complete list of changes, refer to ChangeLog. This release
is primarily a bug fix release.
Unsorted entries in PLIST files have generated a pkglint warning for at
least 12 years. Somewhat more recently, pkglint has learned to sort
PLIST files automatically. Since pkglint 5.4.23, the sorting is only
done in obvious, simple cases. These have been applied by running:
pkglint -Cnone,PLIST -Wnone,plist-sort -r -F
At the same time, fix a symbol conflict by using zlib from pkgsrc
rather than a private copy

Release notes for pcb-4.0.1
========================================================================
Dear Users,
This release fixes a number of bugs.
Kind regards,
The pcb development team
Contributors
------------
The following authors contributed to the 4.0.1 release:
- Milan Prochac
- Charles Parker
- Dan McMahill
- Sergey Alyoshin
- Igor2
- Peter Clifton
- bert
Please note that names are in no particular order and all e-mail
addresses have been removed for privacy.
User experience improvements
----------------------------
- reorchestrated the closing of the command window to not crash.
- only invalidate the screen after changes to the crosshair or mark are
complete.
Plugins
-------
- none
Exporters
---------
- fix for gcode dimensions.
- added a regression test for the IPC-D-356 exporter.
- added more documentation for the IPC-D-356 netlist exporter.
Footprints library
------------------
- add macro with more programmability for 2 pin axial components. Use
this to add a few IPC-7251 compliant footprints for axial inductors,
horizontally mounted. Use this in turn for the TDK B82145A RF chokes
family.
- add toko category and the 7P variable inductors.
- gen_geda_*.awk were nearly identical to gen_*.awk so add 2 lines to
geda.inc so we can use the same script for everything. Verified that
pcblib-newlib builds with identical results before/after.
- for the horizontally mounted axial macro add the missing bits for
marking polarity on parts like diodes.
- add PKG_RADIAL_MM100 macro for doing more general metric 2 pin radial
packages.
- add some IPC radial capacitor footprints and use those to create some
united chemicon footprints.
- add DO-41 diode package, horizontally mounted.
- add PKG_MTHOLE_GENERIC macro for fairly generic mounting holes. Use
this to define IPC mounting holes for #4 and #6 machine screws with
pan heads or flat washers for both "tight" (board < 4") and "loose"
(board > 4") fits.
- add TO-263 footprint.
- add some notes about m4 library development.
- fix problem in some possible invocations of the generic mounting hole
macro. All footprints pass syntax checks again.
- remove an extra empty attribute which is not needed and causes
warnings in the mounting hole macro.
- fix clearance on the Toko 7P footprint.
- in the mounting hole macro, change the calculation of the pad size for
the support vias to make them as large as possible without actually
changing the copper (the support vias are covered by the main pad).
This does not affect the fabricated board but it does remove some
false positive DRC complaints.
Developer experience improvements
---------------------------------
- allow translators to change number of tabs in message.
- In the test suite, check for a working X display using xhost before
running action script tests
- match() with 3 arguments is a gawk extension. Rework the code to avoid
using a 3 argument call to match() in one spot. Lets the script run
with gawk or NetBSD's awk (20121220). Verified that the generated
result is identical to the previous gawk result using both gawk and
NetBSDs awk.
- change from AC_FD_CC to AS_MESSAGE_LOG_FD
- removed the antifork abomination.
- disabled one of the checks used to deal with older gdlib installs on
some linux systems when building under cygwin as the test has
problems. Repairs building for mingw under cygwin.
- when building under cygwin, create a pcbtest.bat batch file that
allows testing the compiled pcb without installing. This is somewhat
analogous to the pcbtest.sh script generated on linux and other
unix-like systems.
- cleanup the win32 build script a good bit. An important change is
that instead of blindly installing all of the mingw cross system root
files, only install a set of listed ones. This not only reduces the
size of the windows installer but makes sure we have a more repeatable
build and know what we are actually bundling into the installer.
- fixed the Attribute deletion code.
Notes for early adapters
------------------------
- none
Changed dependencies
--------------------
- none
Fixed and committed Launchpad bug reports
-----------------------------------------
#700193 Append branch to version string.
#917308 m4lib_to_newlib.sh does not work with mawk.
#1528040 Gcode export smaller pad size.
#1654821 Attribute deletion code is broken.
#1659045 gts source do not compile when DEBUG symbol defined.
#1659061 Compile warnings when DEBUG symbol is defined.
#1660058 Several i18n fixes.
#1672886 Crash when reopening command entry window in gtk.
#1674133 Last action executed when escaping from command entry.
#1682654 Drawing area redrawn twice when crosshair moves.
========================================================================
3.3.86 03oct17 Added recurse import function (found before only in the hier
search) into the SST.
Removed obsolete bundle functionality from SST as recurse
import more accurately imports recursively.
Made entrybox taller (using -1) as recent versions of
gnome have taller window titlebars and the widget was not
tall enough.
3.3.84 03sep17 Updated FSDB reader with experimental FST tree build
routines for faster init.
Removed warnings found when compiling with -Wshadow.
Automatically enable --comphier for FST/FSDB/AE2 if facility
count reaches 500000. This is to reduce memory consumption
for traces with very many signals. Added disable_auto_comphier
to override this behavior.
Fix null pointer sent to gtk_clipboard_set_text() for
mouseover to clipboard cut ops.
- Fix issue of raise exception when sweep along with cornered line
- osx ifx: Visualization, Font_FontMgr - do not look for fonts.dir on OS X
- fix external linkage error in BRepBuilderAPI_Copy
-----------------------------
3.3.83 04aug17 Preserve search type for regex search across reloads or
close/reopens of regex search widget.
Update local libz to current version.
-----------------------------
3.3.82 02jul17 Get sys_fst working with VCS VPI.
Added string concatenations for vectors.
Added asserts to ghwlib.c to make scan-view clean.
