Subject: Re: KiCad 4.0.7 does not have a release file error

Dear Marco,

As Sumanto mentioned, we have been using KiCad for the eSim EDA tool for
several years. During these years, we made a library of ~1000 schematics
designed in KiCad's latest version (v4.0.7) at that time. So, to remain
consistent and portable with our circuits library, we continued using KiCad
4 based on this old version.

We take this opportunity to request your suggestions on feasible ways to
port these circuit schematics to KiCad 5 or 6.

Yes, truly KiCad 4.0.7 is very old. But we are from an Open Source
Community(). We are using KiCad 4.0.7 as a
frontend for the Open Source Tool. So we need it.

Thanks & Regards,
Sumanto Kar

Kindly look into it.

Why are you trying to install KiCad 4? It is way old! Even what comes
with your distribution (that is usually not so up to date) is newer!
Install KiCad 6!



sudo add-apt-repository --yes ppa:kicad/kicad-6.0-releases
sudo apt update
sudo apt install --install-recommends kicad
