You can import these (well xml versions) directly into Allegro, File - Import - CAD Translators - Eagle PCB. Press the Help button for more info.

So what version of software are you running from Help - About? If it isn't 17.2016 S059 (now) then as per my previous message get the latest version and try again.......

I can't remember exactly when the Eagle translator was added but it's there for me and I'm running the latest hotfix. I am running the Windows version though but can't imagine they would be different. Get to the latets version and give it a try.

Try typing ns_eagle2allegro followed by a return at the command line and see if anything starts. It could be that you have custom menus or that the translator does not support Linux. It's certainly there for the Windows version.

As Steve says: obtain and install the latest hotfix for 17.2 ( Seems you are using 17.2 with an old hotfix (S017)

Latest one is S058 (now); i think Steve have a keyboard with "8" and "9" to close
