We are pleased to announce Lepton EDA release 1.9.15.  This
release represents about 500 commits by 2 people, bringing several
important changes, improvements, and bug fixes to the code.

* About

Lepton EDA is a suite of free software tools for designing
electronics. It provides schematic capture, netlisting into
over 30 netlist formats, and many other features. It was forked
from the gEDA/gaf suite (http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:gaf)
in late 2016 by most of its active developers at that time.

The project team maintains traditional and evolutional (but not
conservative) development of tools in the suite.

* Release notes

We encourage you to test this release and provide
feedback either to our issue tracker at

  https://github.com/lepton-eda/lepton-eda/issues

or to the mailing list geda-user AT delorie DOT com.

You can also chat with us at https://gitter.im/Lepton-EDA/.

[*] Use an .asc file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.asc suffix) is intact.  First, be sure to download both the .asc file
and the corresponding tarball.  Then, run a command like this:

  gpg --verify lepton-eda-1.9.15.tar.gz.asc

* Release changelog

The new release introduces much better support of the GTK3 lib.
Please let us know if you still encounter bugs with it in our
tools.

Full list of changes is available at:

  https://github.com/lepton-eda/lepton-eda/blob/master/NEWS.md

and below.

* Online documentation

Please see our documentation at a dedicated Lepton site on Github:

  https://lepton-eda.github.io/

The documentation has changed significantly though it is still
needs your help.  Please help us fill in it with information
interesting or important to you.

* Contributor list

The following people have contributed code or reported bugs since
the previous lepton-eda release 1.9.14 (as found in the commit
history, issue tracker history, and other sources).

- Dmitry (AKA dmn)
- Vladimir Zhbanov 

Many others are working on packaging Lepton for various
distributions.

Thank you all!

* Changes since version 1.9.14 (excerpt from the NEWS file)

### General changes:

- The test suite has been fixed and now `make distcheck` can
  be run under the `root` user account without errors.

- Lepton now fully supports GTK 3.0.0:
  - Several warnings on functions deprecated in GTK/GDK 3.0.0 have
    been fixed.
  - See also changes in `lepton-schematic` below.

- A bug with visual representation of arcs in raster images and on
  canvas of `lepton-schematic` has been fixed.

- All Lepton utilities, even the GUI ones, no longer use
  `liblepton` as a Scheme extension.  Now the libraries are
  properly dynamically loaded by Scheme as any other libs.


### Changes when building from source:

- Fixed building with `--disable-attrib`: the `bin/lepton-attrib`
  script is no longer installed.

- Versions of `Cygwin` libraries have been updated to match actual
  versions of `liblepton`, `libleptongui` and `libleptonattrib`.

### Changes in `liblepton`:

- Several core C structs in the library have been amended to
  contain only relevant information about primitive objects.

- The following core Scheme modules written in C have been removed
  and their functions have been reimplemented using Scheme FFI:
  - `(lepton core deprecated)`
  - `(lepton core object)`
  - `(lepton core os)`

- A new module, `(lepton object type)`, has been introduced.  It
  now contains functions from `(lepton object)`, and exported in
  that module as well, that query the type of primitive Lepton's
  objects.

- Definitions of foreign functions are now residing in a new
  module, `(lepton ffi)`.  The module contains definitions of
  Scheme counterparts of C functions in the `liblepton` library.

- The Scheme function `platform()` no longer outputs `'(carbon)`.
  There is no reasonable replacement yet, so the function outputs
  `'(unknown)` on those Mac machines on which it usually did so.

### Changes in `lepton-schematic`:

- Snap size and grid size indicators now have separate labels
  in the status bar. The snap size label changes its text color
  and decoration to draw user's attention when snap size currently
  set differs from the value in configuration. It helps avoiding
  mistakes when constructing new symbols.

- Lepton now fully supports GTK 3.0.0.  Apart from fixes mentioned
  above the following changes have been made:
  - A bug of not showing text of hidden attributes in the
    **Multiattrib** dialog of `lepton-schematic` has been fixed.
  - Displaying of tabs has been improved.
  - Displaying of the **Object properties** dialog in the docked
    view of the program has been fixed so all widgets are shown
    properly now.
