I don’t know how to install these packages. I understood that the “ngspice” model is made by each semiconductor manufacturer in a different way. How do you enter the “spice codes” in KICAD?
Dpkg is a Debian distro family utility and would not be appropriate on Fedora. As Holger said, say what is it you’re trying to do, rather than attempt inappropriate instructions.
Thanks for the answer. I have Fedora and I wanted to load some ngspice libraries to see how the simulation tool works. I don’t know where these spice libraries are and I don’t know how to install them. Instead, I managed to load 3D libraries according to the instructions on the official website Kikad
Sorry, I won’t open this topic again
