Update PCB from Schematic broke nets

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior]

Update PCB from Schematic broke nets or parts wires like that there are not any connection.
From the file *.net works normal.

Note that this works correctly in 5.0

Also, the net connections are different when selecting different "Match Methods"

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

Actually, this has never worked. The difference in 6.0 is that it defaults to Delete Single Pad Nets, which is the broken code. If you turn that off then it runs the 5.0 algorithm.

Hi Jeff- I just tried to recreate this with 5.0 and can't. Was there something in v5 that we need to fix for 5.0.1?

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

No, 5.0 hard-codes Delete Single Pad Nets to false, so the buggy code is never executed.

Cheers,
Jeff.

@Jeff
I still having some issue related with this in a "201807270649+0cca1c6~65~ubuntu16.04.1", to reproduce:

1) Use GNDD and GNDA net symbols;
2) Connect some component do one of them;
3) Synchronize the PCB (not matter the way);
4) Change the GNDD<->GNDA at one component but keep both existing in the board;
5) Synchronize directly by F8, it not change at the PCB;

6) Creating the NET file works fine.

Should I change the bug status? Someone is experimenting this?

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

@Hildo, if this still happens to you can you post a very simple project which illustrates it? I can't seem to reproduce it....

[Hildo Guillardi Júnior (hildogjr)]

Working now.
This last issue was cause by https://bugs.launchpad.net/kicad/+bug/1787380
that didn't allow my Linux to get last commits.

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

Cool. Thanks for checking.

[Jeff Young (jeyjey)]

@Hildo, FYI our workflow is to leave the status as Fix Committed until an official release. (In other words the nightlies don't count as "Released".)

Thanks for your contributions to Kicad!
