Comment 3 Jacek Radzikowski 2009-08-04 18:45:54 UTC

kicad-2009.07.07-3.rev1863.fc11 is not available neither in the "updates" nor "updates-testing" repos yet. Should I add another repo to be able to install it?

Comment 4 Chitlesh GOORAH 2009-08-04 18:50:13 UTC

either you download the rpms from https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/kicad-2009.07.07-3.rev1863.fc11  

or wait till the mirrors are updated.

In both cases, it will be the same RPMS.

kicad-2009.07.07-3.rev1863.fc11 has been pushed to the Fedora 11 stable repository.  If problems still persist, please make note of it in this bug report.
