Hello, This package has no maintainer so this bug may go unnoticed for a long time. Gentoo has a dedicated team[1] for assisting users in maintaining orphaned packages. If you are interested in maintaining this package, please contact proxy-maint@gentoo.org or join #gentoo-proxy-maint on Freenode IRC.

I cannot find the tarballs... that look to be like autogenerated snapshots or something, I have looked at their github page and neither :S
Created attachment 415442 [details] kicad-20150320.ebuild This ebuild is from https://github.com/zpuskas/sinustrom-gentoo-overlay/tree/master/sci-electronics/kicad Can you try it?
@zoltab, are you the author of that ebuild? Would you be willing to proxy maintain this package? https://wiki.gentoo.org/index.php?title=Project:Proxy_Maintainers
@Pacho: Yes, I'll proxy maintain the package till I become a full Gentoo maintainer/dev. Then I'll take full maintainership of the pacakge.
Nice, I will CC proxy-maintainers here then to help you to get this into the tree finally :D Thanks a lot for volunteering
(In reply to Zoltan Puskas from comment #5) > @Pacho: Yes, I'll proxy maintain the package till I become a full Gentoo > maintainer/dev. Then I'll take full maintainership of the pacakge. ok the ebuild is close. I am uncertain about having to take out python3s from FindPythonLibs.cmake. Also the inheriting of python-r1 requires a couple of specialist components to be added/ Either way, can you login to irc and /j #gentoo-proxy-maint for further support to work this to a fit state. We can help with both those goals.
