Update to the 20030525 development snapshot

Release notes for the gEDA/gaf 20030525 development snapshot
------------------------------------------------------------
CHANGES:

   General / Summary

        * This release is mainly a packaging release.  Several
          contributed pieces were integrated into the gEDA/gaf
          release framework including:

                - Piotr Miarecki's geda (gManager)
                - Piotr's gEDA Suite setup.
                - geda-examples which is a tarball of various
                  examples of gEDA/gaf in action.

        * Two new backends were also incorporated (switcap and spice-sdb)

        * Improved the toplevel Makefile a little bit.  Now if you are
          building from a CVS checkout, you can: 1) set the PATH and
          LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables (as usual) and 2) type: make install
          and the Makefile will take care of running auto* as required.

   libgeda

        * Shared library version number still at 18 (unchanged).

        * No changes for libgeda.

   gschem

        * Applied patch by Mario Klebsch for bug #43: "If gschemdoc is
          not install, gschem crashes".

        * Fixed a crash when you press the q key or any other "no-action"
          key.  This was changed behavior when using guile 1.6.3.

        * Added "reset-component-library" and "reset-source-library" rc
          keywords.  Now from either ~/.gEDA/gschemrc (or gnetlistrc)
          or a local gschemrc (or gnetlistrc) file, you can empty out
          all the default libraries and set your own.

        * Fixed the x_multimulti.nw build problem that some people ran into.

        * Updated the Brazilian translation (new file supplied by Antonio).

   gnetlist

        * Applied a patch by Dan McMahill to get the PCBboard backend working
          with guile 1.6.3

        * Integrated Stuart Brorson's advanced spice backend (spice-sdb).
          Please see the howto in the docs directory (docs/spice-sdb/)
          for more info on this backend.  The only changes I made to
          Stuart's original code was to lowercase the name of the backend
          (from spice-SDB to spice-sdb).  Also check out his spice website
          at: [1]http.

        * Integrated Dan McMahill's switchcap backend.  Please see the
          gnetlist/docs/README.switcap for more info.  Also see the
          documentation in the docs package (docs/switcap) for even more
          info.

        * Applied a patch from Dan to the gnetlist.1 manpage.

   gsymcheck

        * No changes for gsymcheck.

   symbols

        * Werner Hoch updated a bunch of symbols in the max symbol library
          along with adding a few new symbols.  Thanks!

        * Integrated a few new symbols for Stuart's spice backend.

        * Integrated a few new symbols for Dan's switcap backend.

        * Fixed 93Cx6-1.sym to include power information (patch by
          Holger Dietze). (Bug#65)

        * Applied Wojciech Kazubski's --with-docdir patch.  Now you can
          specify where the documentation is installed using --with-docdir
          at the ./configure stage.

        * Fixed 74/7408-2.sym and 74/7409-2.sym, these symbols were swapped.
          Pointed out by Mario Klebsch.

        * Integrated a bunch of symbols from various people (thanks)
          who used the website upload mechanism.  Btw, the website symbol
          upload is so much easier for me, so please continue using it.
          I think I have a few symbols I still need to finish integrating.

   geda (gManager)

        * From the README:

                "gEDA Suite Project Manager is a start point for
                 everything what you may want to do. It is used to
                 organize your files and easy running tools. It
                 simplifies your job."

          Even though it is called gManager or Project Manager, the
          built executable is called "geda".  Please play with it and
          let Piotr know of any suggestions or bugs.

        * This is the first release of this program inside the gEDA/gaf
          framework.

        * Integrated this program into the toplevel Makefile (so that it gets
          built when you type make install etc...)

        * If you build using the toplevel Makefile from now on, you must
          have geda in the current directory.

   setup

        * This is Piotr's gEDA Suite Setup program.

        * This is the first release of this program inside of the gEDA/gaf
          framework.   Please send all bug reports to Piotr.

        * Here's how you use it:

           1) Download all the gaf files and the required libraries
              and put them all into one directory.
           2) Download guile-1.4.1.tar.gz and put it also into the
              above directory.
           3) Type: make xinstall
           4) Follow the GUI.

          Setup will build and install all of gEDA/gaf.  Eventually this
          will be extended to build/install the rest of gEDA and gEDA
          related programs.  Please let Piotr know of any suggestions or
          bugs.

          Make sure you have guile-1.4.1.tar.gz in the current directory
          along with all the gaf tarballs.

        * If you build using the toplevel Makefile from now on, you must
          have setup in the current directory.

   utils

        * Applied a patch by Charles Lepple to fix a build problem on OSX.

        * Applied Wojciech Kazubski's --with-docdir patch here as well.

   docs

        * Integrated documentation for Dan's and Stuart's new backends.

        * Applied Wojciech Kazubski's --with-docdir patch here as well.

   examples

        * This is the first release of the example package inside of
          the gEDA/gaf framework.

        * This package includes:

          - Stefan's gTAG : An example of hierarchical schematics using gaf.

          - Terry Porter's lightning_detector: An example of how to use
            gEDA/gaf with PCB.

          - Stuart Brorson's TwoStageAmp and RF_Amp : Examples of how
            to use spice-sdb for single page and hierarchical SPICE
            simulation using gEDA/gaf.

          If anybody else has some projects they would be willing to allow
          me to distribute, please let me know!  I'm always looking for
          examples of gEDA/gaf in real use.

        * The examples are not installed, but the toplevel Makefile expects
          the tarball to be untarred in the current directory.

   directories.
