General ⇒ tikz circuits library causing pgfkeys error

[blcArmadillo]

I'm trying to use tikz circuit library in a document I'm typing up. But I'm getting the following error:

/usr/share/texmf/tex/generic/pgf/frontendlayer/tikz/libraries/circuits/tikzlibr
arycircuits.code.tex:103: Package pgfkeys Error: I do not know the key '/tikz/p
os/.belongs to family' and I am going to ignore it. Perhaps you misspelled it.

Any ideas what may be causing this? Thanks.

Hi,

can you please post a complete, compilable code including the offending part?

Here is the tex file (it's from http://www.texample.net/tikz/examples/l ... s-library/):

Maybe you are trying to use some features that are not yet available in your currently installed PGF/TikZ version. Try installing a newer version; following the link below you can find the latest builds:

TikZ and PGF builds - TeXample.net.

I've updated my pgf/tikz install to Build date 2010-01-17 (the newest build from what I can see).

Now I'm getting the following error:

Package pgfkeys Error: I do not know the key '/tikz/cktb
aselength' and I am going to ignore it. Perhaps you misspelled it.
