On Ubuntu 15.04 operating system upon launching eSim, the splash screen hides the dialogue box which prompts the user to choose the workspace location. Unless the workspace location is not chosen eSim wont be launched. User unaware of the dialogue box in the background might have to wait endlessly for eSim to launch. However upon a mouse click the splash screen quits itself and the workspace dialogue box becomes visible .
The splash screen should either disappear after a time out period or the the workspace dialogue box should be above the splash screen.
The scrolling pad at the console area is not proper. The arrows are not clearly visible .
Just open esim and carefully notice the console area , specially the scrolling tab
The arrows must be visible and the scroll rod must not overlap its boundary .
I have recorded the bug and its shared through drive : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1dbbzWllae77zyV7O4DHaYHLreIt2oYiC/view?usp=share_link

Dont know how to send changes otherway. Im a newbe and afraid to dammage the installer script for others.
Maybe someone can update the script
im looking also for llvm-12 version support. script doesnt find llvm-8 but still looking how to solve that one. See other issue
Greetings
Gerald
The build instructions in the installers
branch can be moved to master
branch or at least a link to the installers
branch will be helpful for people building from source on non-Debian based distros such as Arch, Manjaro, Gentoo, etc.
eSim is not getting installed properly in the path other than Drive:/FOSSEE. For example, D:/FOSSEE works but D:/eSim/FOSSEE does not.
In the eSim installer give the path as D:/eSim/FOSSEE. Install eSim.
Open Makerchip-NgVeri.
Upload a file in the Makerchip Tab.
Run Verilog to Ngspice to Converter(NgVeri).
eSim_Ngveri.lib No such directory error pops up pointing to the D:/FOSSEE location.
NgVeri should work fine pointing to the D:/eSim/FOSSEE location for various operations.
Bug reported by @[email protected]
While creating a subcircuit, when we try to convert the kicad model to ngpsice, eSim crashes and becomes unresponsive.
Expected eSim to successfully convert kicad model to ngspice and create the subcircuit.
While running the Verilog to Ngspice Converter, cannot open 'C:\Users\Sumanto\AppData\Local\Temp\ccVyZkFb.s' for writing: Permission denied has occurred in the Make Verilator step.
The Make Verilator step should be able to access the temp files of Windows 11.

When trying to install eSim on newer Ubuntu versions the installation of xpdf fails.
As stated here xpdf was dropped from Ubuntu with version 20.04.
Would it be possible for eSim to use another pdf reader?
Add feature to rename projects, and also their respective files, in the selected folder.

Running NgVeri while the Ngspice window is still open leads to Ngveri.cm not accessible error.
NgVeri should not be run when the Ngspice window is still open as the write access to Ngveri.cm is not available.
All the Ngspice windows need to be closed before running NgVeri.
Here is the error:
Error in Ngspice code model generation from Verilog: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'D:/FOSSEE/nghdl-simulator/lib/ngspice/Ngveri.cm'
Run eSim Ngspice Simulation. DO NOT close the window.
Open Makerchip-NgVeri.
Load a Verilog Code in Makerchip tab.
Switch to the NgVeri Tab.
Run NgVeri.
The following error pops up in the NgVeri Terminal.
Error in Ngspice code model generation from Verilog: [Errno 13] Permission denied: 'D:/FOSSEE/nghdl-simulator/lib/ngspice/Ngveri.cm'
Changes to be made in the code not to run NgVeri when Ngspice window is open.
While assigning values to components like resistors, after assigning the values eSim gets stuck and doesn't respond.

Hello,
I see that this provide installer for Ubuntu, but would it be possible to make an installer for other non apt, non deb distro?
I also would like to create eSIM package as Flatpak.
https://www.flatpak.org/
and distribute it in Flathub.
https://flathub.org/home
Flatpak can install on any distro that support them, which most distro does. KiCAD is already in Flathub.
https://flathub.org/apps/details/org.kicad.KiCad
I am trying to understand install-esim.sh at the moment.
Would you interest for eSIM as Flatpak?

Hello,
I am trying to build eSIM from source on Linux.
INSTALL mention install-eSim.sh, but I could not find it. Was it delete?
Thanks.
Users can access Verilog model symbols for KiCad after deleting the model from Ngveri.
Expected that after deleting the model from Ngveri Users can't access that model's symbol from kicad
This symbol's model has already been removed but still has access to the symbol.
Inside the eSim/src/maker folder, There are not any codes to delete that symbol
The current eSim installer does not detect the previously installed eSim version.
This causes various path problems and problems with rewriting the files.
The installer should be able to detect the previously installed eSim.
Ask the user whether to remove it or not.
If the user permits, the previously installed eSim must be removed completely and then the installation of the new version of eSim must begin.
Not all functions in the eSim code is written in accordance with the Writing docstrings
section in the sphinx documentation
The docstrings in the functions have to be rewritten according to the documentation.
Following the process detailed in the eSim user manual I am trying to simulate as detailed in chapter 6. The process is a success through to the kicadToNgSpice conversion. However, pressing on the Simulation button on the left-side tool bar on the eSim interface results in a window with the following info:
Error while opening python plotting Editor. Please look at console for more details
The contents of the console are:

Any insight as to how I can resolve this?
While simulating the circuit, if the user changes values in KicadtoNgspice or changes components in schematic and then changes values in KicadtoNgspice, it doesn't respond to the Convert button. Also, it shows an error in the ESim terminal as attached below.
If this error is encountered once, then it will repeat even on changing the project until the previous_values.xml file is deleted.
The Subcircuit Builder Buttons are getting snapped of in the eSim-2.3 in Windows 11 system.
The buttons showed be visible in the original sizes with complete text.

Even the icons and letters are very small in size.
Possible reason could be resolution of the Desktop Screen.
eSim shoud be able to automatically resize according to the resolution of the screen irrespective of the machine.

Please guide how to rectify the issue
The Project Explorer has a QTreeWidget holding all the projects and their respective file in a formatted tree structure. When a user deletes the files from the system, it should be reflected in the Project Explorer but the explorer shows old files until the user manually refreshes the project.
Files should be updated as soon as the user expands the project or selects it as the current project.
The installation is not running through an my ubuntu 20.04. This is because apt does not provide a installation candidate for llvm-8.
E: Unable to locate package llvm-8
I tried editing the installation scripts to use llvm-9 which seems to work so far. This has to be done in both the installation of nghdl and esim.
cheers :)

Hi,
I'm trying to install eSim2.3 on a fresh and updated Ubuntu 23.04.
I'm quiet a newbe with the terminal / Ubuntu, but forced to use it to install eSim2.3
After using these lines, $ chmod +x install-eSim.sh and $ ./install-eSim.sh --install
I got a seemingly Phyton error. Is there a way to solve this easily?
Ps, in about a week I got more time to play around with stuff, now waiting for a new hip and need the pc in hospital.
Afraid to screw things up.
Thanks in advance.

Aborting Installation...
.nghdl folder in the C:/Users/ does not get overwritten in the reinstallation of eSim.
Possibly this issue would be related to #227.
Install eSim in a new location.
Open Makerchip-NgVeri.
Upload a file in a Makerchip tab.
Run Verilog to Ngspice Converter in the NgVeri Tab.
eSim closes unexpectedly giving an error attached in the screenshot.
NgVeri should generate the model properly without the crashing of the eSim.
Bug reported by @[email protected]
#197
Ideal solution is to use a message box for reporting the conversion status.
eSim currently does not support the feature to run multiple ngspice simulations.
Support for such action should be added
- where multiple simulations of different projects are done
- where multiple simulations of the same project are done
The plot of python plot does not replicate that of ngspice for parameter sweeping instead looks something like a raster scan.

Issue Details-
eSim crash on opening/editing a schematic without any project selection.
After clicking New Subcircuit Schematic / Edit Subcircuit Schematic
eSim should open the subcircuit schematic without crashing.
Ngspice is CASE insensitive.
However, if we need path of a directory to be passed in netlist, say "/home/sumanto/Desktop" gets converted to"/home/sumanto/desktop".
A temporary fix has been decided to add a '$' before the CAPITAL letters to identify them.
Ngspice should be CASE sensitive for paths, string values, etc.
Currently the packaging in eSim is done manually.
However, it is difficult to package everything and follow the steps as new features get added on.
It also takes huge amount of time and the developer also needs to go through a proper checklist.
We need to automate the packaging of eSim to solve the above problems.
Automate the packaging of eSim.
A script/code should package the eSim automatically and the developer must have to do minor changes to the script whenever there are change in modules.

Error in parsing the last Output in a module due to HDL Parse

output reg [2:0]light_S1,
output reg [2:0]light_S2,
output reg [2:0]light_S3,
output reg [2:0]light_S4,
);
Parsing the above code gives number of ports for S4 as 1.
Pass the code through the NgVeri(HDLparse), it will give the number of ports of S4 in the eSim terminal as 1.
The number of Ports of S4 need to be 3.
Tempory fix is to have the module declaration in the following format:
module DUT(
output reg [2:0]light_S1,
output reg [2:0]light_S2,
output reg [2:0]light_S3,
output reg [2:0]light_S4,
