Hello Adam. Can you remove dependency of kicad.deb from kicad-common.deb and make kicad-common to be dependent from kicad instead as it done in original ubuntu repository? Kicad can work without libraries while libraries are unusable without kicad. I didn't use kicad libraries from kicad-commo

Exactly, if possible all must go, but that will generate pcbnew.so installed to python directories, may be that's better to build as a separate package? That's for use from python (without all the kicad suite installed). (import pcbnew ) There is one flag to enable "python inside pcbnew" ot
