gEDA is a collection of tools which are used for electrical circuit design, simulation and prototyping/production. In example it is possible to draw eletrical circuit, perform schematic capture on it and use the result as source for simulations (made with SPICE or similar tools). More info available on the gEDA project website. This package includes gEDA tools and libraries (in detail: libgeda, symbols, gschem, gnetlist, gsymcheck, geda, utils, docs). In a separate package there's libgdgeda, the image creation library of gEDA.
