When I submitted a patch to upgrade kicad to 6.0.9 I went ahead
and added gdk-pixbuf as an input.
Now it seems to work well, except in at least one strange case.
I noticed that kicad crashes when I run it in a pure shell with
both kicad and python-ipython:
guix shell --pure kicad python-ipython -- kicad # crashes when you
click on GUI open project icon
guix shell kicad python-ipython -- kicad # does not crash
guix shell --pure kicad -- kicad # does not crash
I do not know if this is a bug in kicad or in the guix package or
something else.
I assume this means that one or more environment variables need to
be set in the pure shell, but I do not know which.
guix shell --pure --check kicad python-ipython -- kicad
guix shell: checking the environment variables visible from shell
'/bin/bash'...
guix shell: All is good! The shell gets correct environment
variables.
