~/.pcb/preferences contains DRC vaules..

Looking on my system, it appears there may be some breakage though...

min-width = 1 px
min-silk = 1 px
min-drill = 15.00 mil
min-ring = 10.00 mil

Hmm - what has pixels got to do with anything... BUG? (it gets read in as
0.1mil .actually, but emitting px is wrong)

Anyway - try editing that file.. see if it updates things.

Be aware that some preferences are saved between PCB runs (but a quick
check suggests these DRC clearances are not updated in the file, so should
persist once you edit the file).

If you create a new design with the old gsch2pcb flow, the defaults it
starts with come from a hard-coded template PCB file in the netlister
back-end, but as you specifically said "new instance of pcb", I assume
you're actually just starting a fresh copy of pcb with no design loaded.
(And perhaps using the import schematics functionality to create your new
design?)
