I fell over this too recently -- I used cirkuit with earlier versions and it worked fine. I must have updated it to the current version and when I tried to use it lately none of my previous working files, which I had written using previous versions of cirkuit, was working anymore. Would be nice if there could be a fix on either the latex or the cirkuit side ... Created attachment 87026 [details]
Ignore Latex Warnings
This is a possible fix, which just ignore all Latex Warnings.

Dear Bug Submitter, This is a reminder that this bug has been stagnant for a long time. Could you help us out and re-test if the bug is valid in the latest version? This bug will be moved back to REPORTED Status for manual review later, which may take a while. If you are able to, please lend us a hand. Thank you for helping us make KDE software even better for everyone! It is hard to say if that problem is really gone, but I tested some of my older files, (texlive version has changed as well in the mean time) but they compile fine in cirkuit, and also a warning appears in the compile log which does not produce a problem. I am not sure if the warning was the same category in the original report: Package pgf Warning: Snakes have been superseded by decorations. Please use the decoration libraries instead of the snakes library on input line 14. I use currently cirkuit 0.4.3 which is installed from a package from openSUSE 13.2, even if the package is not in the repos of my current openSuse 15.0 anymore... Thank you for reporting this issue in KDE software. As it has been a while since this issue was reported, can we please ask you to see if you can reproduce the issue with a recent software version? If you can reproduce the issue, please change the status to "REPORTED" when replying. Thank you! Dear Bug Submitter, This bug has been in NEEDSINFO status with no change for at least 15 days. Please provide the requested information as soon as possible and set the bug status as REPORTED. Due to regular bug tracker maintenance, if the bug is still in NEEDSINFO status with no change in 30 days the bug will be closed as RESOLVED > WORKSFORME due to lack of needed information.

When I try to use the tikz backend, I will neither get an preview, nor an output. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1) use tikz-backend Actual Results: In the log, there is the following output: [pdflatex] LaTeX Warning: You have requested, on input line 201, version but only version `2013/1/13 v1.7 String manipulations (C Tellechea)' But no graphic is generated. Expected Results: Generate graphic. I am using Fedora 17, with vanilla texlive 2012 and compiled cirkuit 0.4.3. A dirty workaround I currently use is, to remove the QRegExp("LaTeX Warning:") from L69 of logparser.cpp.
