Hi there,
apologies if this is an issue which has been resolved somewhere else. I’ve looked around for a solution pretty extensively, but haven’t found any so far. I do admit that me not finding one might be down to me not exactly knowing what search terms to use…
I recently upgraded my Ubuntu to 21.04, and after that, none of the PCBnew plugins I had installed previously were there any more. I tried putting them into every single folder where I suspected they might be found by Kicad, to no avail. The scripting Console is also not working, so I suspect it might be something with Python, but I’m kinda lost with what to look for.
Thanks for any help.
