"plotting entry in the misc menu" sorry for the typos. ah, it hangs only if there is something to plot: that is, it does'nt complain if the circuit is blank
Confirmed. Thanks for reporting. I'll try to fix it some time soon.
Created attachment 68786 [details, diff] patch for chipmunksystem-20031105-r2.ebuild This patch for the ebuild fixes the plot.font path issue. Additionally, it fixes the paths to some *.ps files that are needed as well.
Patched ebuild (r3) is now in CVS. Thanks for your work, Markus.
