Continuing to work on Piklab and Ktechlab, I have gone back to piklab for now and discovered the following: 1. When you configure the toolchains, piklab looks in the exec path for gpasm and gplib and apparently ignores the environment, because when gputils installs the library manager and assembler are loaded in the /usr/bin directory and found via path from the command line. 2. I added a symbolic link to the /usr/share/libexec/sdcc directory (the search path for the executables used by piklab) to both gpasm and gplib, they show up as: "gpsim" not recognized "gplib" not recognized But pressing the find button for gpasm shows a textbox with the following in it: Command for executable detection: /usr/libexec/sdcc/gpasm -v Version string: gpasm-0.13.7 beta Pressing the button for gplib shows: Command for executable detection: /usr/libexec/sdcc/gplib -v Version string: gplib-0.13.7 beta So thinking the beta deal is bad and probably causing the problem, I did "yum info *gputils*" and got: Installed Packages Name : gputils Arch : i686 Version : 0.13.7 Release : 2.fc12 Size : 16 M Repo : installed >From repo : fedora Summary : Development utilities for Microchip (TM) PIC (TM) microcontrollers URL : http://gputils.sourceforge.net License : GPLv2+ Description: This is a collection of development tools for Microchip (TM) PIC : (TM) microcontrollers. : : This is ALPHA software: there may be serious bugs in it, and it's : nowhere near complete. gputils currently only implements a subset : of the features available with Microchip's tools. See the : documentation for an up-to-date list of what gputils can do. At this point, I believe there is a disconnect between the Piklab software and the current state of gputils in the upstream. Does anyone have anything to add to this or any suggestions of where to go from here? Should I bugzilla this?
