Hi Peter and Guillaume,

thanks for the help.

I've tried to use the Guix shell to have a complete environment for Kicad but for some reason it does not work (at least for me)

So here are the steps to reproduce:

$ guix shell kicad kicad-footprints kicad-symbols -- kicad

I start I new project and when I get the dialog about the components I wish to use in the project it all starts to go wrong.

The KICAD7_FOOTPRINT_DIR path seems like it is referring to a different profile. Did you change that environment variable manually or did that happen automatically? Maybe try passing the --pure option to guix shell to clear the environment variable definitions found in the parent environment.

$ guix shell --pure kicad kicad-footprints kicad-symbols -- kicad
