How to import a Eagle schematic to KiCAD???
I’ve tried both these approaches in KiCad 4.0.1 (opening the Eagle .BRD file in pcbnew, and running the lachlanA ULPs) and I get the same error message when I try to load the Eagle 6 XML file:
Error loading board.
IO_ERROR: Unknown file type
from /Users/jenkins/remoteroot/workspace/KiCadBuildMac4/kicad/pcbnew/legacy_plugin.cpp : checkVersion() : line 570
Is Eagle schematic import known to work in version 4.0.1?
EDIT: I should add that I tried one set of Eagle 5 files and also a set of Eagle 6 files.
EDIT: I also should’ve said that I’m doing this on OS X 10.9. And I’m getting exactly the same error message when I select “KiCad .brd” in the “Open…” dialog as when I select “Eagle 6 .brd”.
EDIT: I have now filed a bug report for this issue.
