How to Install EDA on Void Linux

EDA is an open source software package for Electronic Design Automation. It provides a complete environment for designing and testing electronic circuits. Here's how to install EDA on Void Linux:

Step 1: Install required dependencies

Before installing EDA, you need to make sure that your system has all the required dependencies.

sudo xbps-install -Su
sudo xbps-install -y git make gcc pkg-config pcre2-dev libX11-dev libXpm-dev libjpeg-turbo-dev libtiff-dev

Step 2: Download EDA from GitHub

Step 4: Test EDA

To test if EDA installed successfully, run the following command:

eda -version

This should output the version of EDA that you just installed.

Conclusion

You have now successfully installed EDA on Void Linux. You can now use it for electronic design and simulation. Happy designing!
