The previous, obsolete packaging was:
Our current Debian packaging reflects the modularity of pcb-rnd: it has
most plugins in separate packages. The main package is called
pcb-rnd-core: this provides the executable and the footprint library
and the batch HID. The GUI HIDs are in pcb-rnd-gtk and
pcb-rnd-lesstif - it's possible to install neither, either or both.
When there are multiple HIDs installed, the user can select one by the
--gui command line parameter or by changing the GUI preference in the
configuration (the default preference is gtk > lesstif > batch).
The rest of the packages are features, importers and exporters, e.g.
pcb-rnd-svg is the SVG exporter, pcb-rnd-query is the object
query language needed for the advanced search.
A metapackage called pcb-rnd is provided for convenience: it installs
the packages for the most common, yet small setup, with the GTK HID.
