[Pkg-electronics-devel] Bug#891286: wish: kicad 5 in exprimental

[Geert Stappers]

Package: kicad
Version: 4.0.7+dfsg1-1
Severity: wishlist


Hi,

Rumours say there is Kicad 5 work in progress.

My wish is that such Kicad 5 work is available in Debian exprimental.

Please consider an exprimental git branch,
something like 'origin/debian/exprimental' or 'origin/debian/version5'.
