Hello Jhon,

You will need to investigate setting the PCBDATA environment variable in order to find the m4 libraries – That  path automatically
has got /pcb/m4 appended to it inside gsch2pcb. Note that there is no environment variable override for the newlib paths.

So in order to fix properly, you might need to build gEDA with the PCB paths configured at build time.

Regards,

Nicke
