+
+Kicad needs wxWidgets, the multi platform G.U.I.
+Known problems:
+wxMSW:
+*DO NOT* use wxMSW.2.8.1
+
+Linux and macOSX
+- Printing problems (all version).
+Note old versions of wxWidgets give
+very ugly results (poor printing resolution set to 72ppi)
+So use a very recent version (> 2.8.8 (that also solve other bugs)
+
+- Bad arcs (before 2.7.1).
+
+wxWidgets patches:
+
+
+*************************************************************************************
+wxGTK version:
+*************************************************************************************
+Patch for printing wide traces that were shown with missing rounded end caps:
+wxGTK-2.8.6/src/generic/dcpsg.cpp
+line 1634
+    PsPrint( "%%EndProlog\n" );
+
+must be
+    PsPrint( "%%EndProlog\n" );
+    PsPrint("%%BeginSetup\n");
+    PsPrint( "1 setlinecap\n" );
+    PsPrint("%%EndSetup\n");
+
+
