If there are LTSpice circuits that are complex that you want to use, the translating links on github might be worth the work ot go 
straight to pcb netlist,
but if you really want to control your layout and BOM and such, it pays to use gschem, or maybe Kicad.

And then, see my post about gschem to gnucap using gaw as viewer...might be just as good as LTSpice for op-amp filters with
the makefiles and such from http://www.johannes-bauer.com/electronics/gnucap/.  I'll do a write up on that with gaw substituted 
soonish...
