Description LABBE Corentin 2023-01-30 19:38:25 UTC

When building kicad 6.0.6, build fail with:
Error: the swig import helper was not fixed, check /var/tmp/portage/sci-electronics/kicad-6.0.6/work/kicad-6.0.6_build/pcbnew/pcbnew.py
       and fix this script: fix_swig_imports.py

This issue is known and fixed in 6.0.9
See https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/12414
And kicad-6.0.9 is emerged without problem.

Reproducible: Always

I have seen this as well.

Comment 2 Alex Orange 2023-02-03 17:48:49 UTC

I ran into the same and here's some info from upstream

Bug report: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/issues/12414

Commit fixing: https://gitlab.com/kicad/code/kicad/-/commit/397a93029e6ef497ed2ed168d2dab3f7bff65c4c

If I'm parsing them correctly <kicad-6.0.9 doesn't work with >=swig-4. Also again if I'm parsing correctly >=kicad-6.0.9 doesn't work with <swig-4. Not sure on the second one though and not exactly sure of the version on the first one (I know it's either >= 4.0 or >=4.1).

TL;DR: You can fix this problem by going to KiCAD 6.0.9.

Comment 3 Zoltan Puskas 2023-02-07 08:51:03 UTC

The breakage happens with swig-4.1 as far as I can tell. Anyhow, stabilizing 6.0.9 will be the best course of action.

Comment 5 Zoltan Puskas 2023-02-08 20:09:42 UTC

Stabilization has been approved. Once 6.0.9 lands in stable land, I will drop 6.0.6 as well as 6.0.7 from the portage tree.
