I can confirm that.

Alain is working on it. We already have an unofficial packaging that also 
got updated a few hours after the source release:

https://copr.fedorainfracloud.org/coprs/avigne/pcb-rnd/

He is working on getting the administration done for converting this into 
an official package. Will probably take some time, large distros are 
usually not very fast in accepting new packages, especially for software 
on special domain like ours.

Besides Debian, Mageia has official packages too. I think we used to have 
an user package on arch but it probably got outdated.

Thanks for the packagers for their effort!

Best regards,

Igor2
