Comment 2 for bug 699448

Hi stefan_BA,

Patching with:

patch -p1 < pcb-20080202-stefan_BA-20080703.diff

in the pcb dir gives no problem or error messages.

configure doesn't complain either.

make complains about the texinfo.tex or pcb.texi being broken, maybe something in the patch regarding pcb.texi, allthough reading the patch I see no strange things.

I hope this gives enough information.

A quick testing your patch gives the impression that this seems to work.

The testpcb gives some additional drill holes in the fab drawing (ps HID) outside the pcb limits).

I can send the pcb file if you will, just ask.

Kind regards,

BTW: I would normally make a diff with:

diff -Naur ....

instead of:

diff -C 3 -r ....

although patch did the job.
