+--== notes about wxWidgets problems ==--
+Last Revised: 02-jul-2015
+
+Kicad needs wxWidgets, the multi platform G.U.I toolkit.
+
+use *only* wxWidgets
+>= 3.0.1 On Windows
+>= 3.0.2 on Linux (prevision versions have bugs which crash Kicad)
+>= 3.0.2 on OSX (which need patches: see patches/wxwidgets-3.0.0_macosx_xxx)
+
+Known bug on Windows:
+Postscript printers print tracks like thin line.
+It happens only for PS drivers, and PDF printer.
+Other drivers (PCL for instance) work fine,
+so it is unlikely a bug inside Kicad/wxWidgets
+
+On 3.0.2 Window version 64 bits:
+The mirror mode gives a blank sheet.
+This is a bug in wxWidgets 3.0.2
+wxWidgets 3.0.2 must be patched (see patches/wxWidgets-3.0.2-msw-dc-orientation-fix.patch) and rebuilt.
