Can't find an upgrade route to 6.xx

Jim_HiTek · January 20, 2022, 8:00pm

OKAY! That worked beautifully following you guy’s helpful hints.

I do have to finagle new desktop icons/links but everything else worked okay using the instructions in this link, following the TERMINAL instructions not the software manager instructions.

Thanks for the help. I don’t recall any previous instructions via google for upgrading to V6.0 that mentioned having to completely uninstall KiCad but maybe I just missed them. I’m so used to just following ‘Upgrade’ instructions for whatever software I’m using that uninstalling first kinda threw me.

Normally it is not needed to uninstall KiCad, and it should just upgrade.

However, something clearly went haywire on your system, and un-installing KiCad and removing all old repositories is an easy to explain way to advise a cleanup with a reasonable likelihood of “fixing” whatever the underlying problem was.

I SPOKE TOO SOON.

After ‘saving’ a schematic, as per the banner instructions, and reopening, Ver 6 can’t find any Power symbols, or any library parts, it seems to be using the ‘backup’ parts. Even though when I installed, I also installed the new libraries and what not.

So exasperating. Well, something to work on. I suppose it’s only a path problem but why didn’t the coders bother to let us know?

Anyone know where the new LIBS for KiCad are now located in Ver 6? They aren’t in the old folders.

Also, note that KiCad does not search for libraries. Upon a first run, it asks you if it should generate the library tables, and if you answer no, then KiCad does not use the libraries even if they are installed.

To fix it, you have to delete the sym-lib-table and fp-lib-table files from your configuration directory. Then KiCad thinks it runs for the first time and re-asks you that question.

The problem was the choice of timestamp for the version “number” in that testing version of KiCad. It was a bad idea to mix version numbering systems. That version is greater than 6 so cannot be updated by 6. So it had to be deleted. The reason it will/did not get reinstalled is because the repo it came from is already deleted or inactive in /etc/apt/sources.list.d so will not be detected, and 6 can be installed.

Your missing libraries is a known hitch encountered by some and I’m sure people are advising you as I write.

Jim_HiTek · January 20, 2022, 10:59pm

GOOD GRIEF!

I answered YES to the question KiCad asked when I opened the first schematic.

And of course, I don’t even HAVE a ‘symbols’ directory. Not sure I did before I uninstalled either.

Why didn’t the ‘install’ routine add the libraries? I told it to.

That link posted is all about libraries in Ver 5. How would that help converting to Ver 6?

“To fix it, you have to delete the sym-lib-table and fp-lib-table files from your configuration directory. Then KiCad thinks it runs for the first time and re-asks you that question.”

Please explain how to do this? Thanks. What config directory, where is it located? KiCad help doesn’t have a search feature in Ubuntu and I can’t find it.

paulvdh · January 20, 2022, 11:10pm

It was the most common answer for library problems, and I can’t see from here what’s happening on your side.

The instructions were indeed written for KiCad V5, but the way it works is very similar to KiCad V6. File formats have changed, and there is a “Migrate” button, bu the rest is very similar, so those manuals are not obsolete for KiCad V6.

What is your output of:

apt search kicad

There is a possibility you can fix the missing libraries with:

sudo apt install kicad-libraries

Jim_HiTek · January 20, 2022, 11:17pm

The apt search shows a lot of stuff but in a format I am unfamiliar with so I don’t know if it’s showing local folders or what?

Next:
Message after running that apt install — “kicad-libraries set to manually installed.”

I didn’t purposely set it to manually install and didn’t see that as an option anytime I ever tried to upgrade. So okay, I’ll manually install them, but how?

paulvdh · January 20, 2022, 11:41pm

I do not how to say this politely, but keep in mind it’s well meant.

I asked you what the output was of “apt search kicad”, I did not ask you to try to interpret it and tell me you don’t know what it means.

In short: you could read the manual of apt.
A bit longer, it searches for all packages related to KiCad on your system, and the lines that start with a lower case “i” in the first column are the packages that are currently installed.

When you executed

sudo apt install kicad-libraries

you did set the libraries to be manually installed. That is what that command does. If that was the only message it gave you (so it did not install the libraries themselves) then it means that it did not (have to) install the libraries, and setting it to “manual” was the only thing it did. (This probably means that if you ever uninstall KiCad, then it won’t uninstall those libraries unless you tell your pc to uninstall those to explicitly.

What is your output of:

cat ~/.config/kicad/6.0/*-lib-table

“cat” shows the contents of a file (or in this case, of two files. The “sym-lib-table” file and the “fp-lib-table” files and if they are in that location, then those are the files which contain the links to the global libraries.

if those files are empty, then those library tables are not generated properly.
If each of them contains some 100 lines of text, then they do contain the listings of the libraries.

So you do have the libraries installed, (or else you would not have gotten the message “set to manual”) and if those two files are also correct, then the last thing I can think of now is some error in the environment variables ${KICAD6_SYMBOL_DIR} and/or ${KICAD6_FOOTPRINT_DIR}

paulvdh · January 20, 2022, 11:58pm

Also:
I strongly recommend you never copy, paste and execute linux command lines without having an understanding of what they do.

There are all kinds of people out there and there are many different ways to completely wreck your linux installation or data with just a single command.

Just had KiCad lock up the computer so tightly, I had to reboot. Wouldn’t even close the main screen when clicking on the X. Better now. Must have been searching for libraries or something.

Everything on my existing schematics look great…even the custom parts…but that’s due to KiCad importing stuff from ‘rescue’ I suspect.

You still have some 2021etc version packages installed:

kicad-footprints/now 202108051702+da8d1e30c~10~ubuntu20.04.1 all [installed,local]
kicad-symbols/now 202108051718+bded9ae0~6~ubuntu20.04.1 all [installed,local]
kicad-templates/now 202102170017+073d194~8~ubuntu20.04.1 all [installed,local]

You need to delete those then install, and then you will get the 6.0.1 versions. Probably:

sudo apt remove kicad-footprints kicad-symbols kicad-templates
sudo apt install kicad-footprints kicad-symbols kicad-templates

THAT WORKED!!!

THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU.

Why isn’t that part of the install package by KiCad???

I can now access libraries including the grnds and pwr symbols. And my schematics, even with custom parts, are fine.

Next, I’ll go test the PCB and see if footprints are working…HAH!

Trippy.

I have thousands of hours of work with OrCad over 27 years or so and although there were some glitches, I recall nothing like these types of errors when upgrading or updating KiCad. Of course I’m using the much preferred Ubuntu on Linux now instead of WinDoze. And KiCad is freeware so can’t complain. Want to, but can’t. It’s the law.

retiredfeline · January 21, 2022, 1:37am

In the normal course of events those library packages would be pulled in by an install of the main KiCad package, but the presence of a number of packages with a different numbering scheme made them unupgradable, so they stayed stuck.

It’s not your fault and hopefully such versioning glitches will not happen again.

jmk · January 21, 2022, 7:06am

So where would these packages exist?

retiredfeline · January 21, 2022, 7:33am

From one of those 2021 testing repos for 5.99, you can try to match the package version which contains the Ubuntu release version with the obsolete repo lines in OP’s first post. The packages may not even be there any more, but once installed, their version is greater than any 5 or 6 version.

jmk · January 21, 2022, 8:05am

Thanks,
I upgraded the Ubuntu versions innumerable times over 2021 but never suffered that problem. I was just curious… will try to remember
