Major changes:
New graphics rendering backend GAL (OpenGL and Cairo) [currently pcbnew
only and does not yet support all legacy tools]
New s-expression based pcb format (.kicad_pcb)
New footprint library format (.pretty folder with .kicad_mod footprints)
Updated footprint editor (only usable with GAL renderer)
More advanced footprint manager concept called footprint library
table (fp-lib-table)
Ability to download footprints on the fly from git repositories
Official libraries are now stored on github and regularly updated
Awesome/Advanced Push and Shove (PnS) router (only usable with GAL renderer)
Interactive differential trace routing and tuning
Interactive trace length tuning
Much more realistic 3D board rendering
Intelligent library search with preview in Eeschema
Initial Python api for Pcbnew
Notes:
Symbols have changed size, been renamed, etc to follow the new KiCad library
conventions so you need to take care when working with older schematics if
you used the symbols packaged with KiCad.
The new pcb format cannot be loaded in older versions of KiCad.

Problems found with existing distfile for eagle:
distfiles/eagle-lin32-7.4.0.run
No changes made to eagle/distinfo file.
Otherwise, existing SHA1 digests verified and found to be the same on
the machine holding the existing distfiles (morden). All existing
SHA1 digests retained for now as an audit trail.

Sources are available only from bzr (no release) so I made a snapshot
of the source tree and put it on a http server.
This package is based on the package in wip by jonathan.gabris@gmail.com
Kicad is an open source (GPL) software for the creation of electronic schematic
diagrams and printed circuit board artwork.
Designed and written by Jean-Pierre Charras, a researcher at LIS (Laboratoire
des Images et des Signaux) and a teacher in IUT de Saint Martin d'Heres
(France), in the field of electrical engineering and image processing.
Kicad is a set of four softwares and a project manager:
* Eeschema: Schematic entry.
* Pcbnew: Board editor.
* Gerbview: GERBER viewer (photoplotter documents).
* Cvpcb: footprint selector for components used in the circuit design.
* Kicad: project manager.
