A google search of "circuit diagram software gpl" turns up this link:

  http://www.epanorama.net/links/software.html [watch out for popups]

Which is a page of links to programs which might meet your need

Next up is http://swik.net/diagrams, which is a page of del.icio.us
tags, mostly for UML diagramming software, but both of these point to
"dia" as a gpl program for diagramming...
[http://www.gnome.org/projects/dia/]

The third links to a page of linux links:

http://www.linux.org/apps/all/Office/CAE.html

Which mentions gEDA [http://www.linux.org/apps/AppId_3200.html,
http://www.geda.seul.org/]  (the next link is to a mailing list entry
pointing out that gEDA is the /only/ "functioning" open source/GPL
solution out there, but then, this page is dated April of 2003...)

And a little further down is a tucows entry:
http://www.tucows.com/preview/10418 "Xcircuit 2.2.1"  (with a 5 cow
rating!)

And finally at the bottom of the first page is this link to a discussion
board on the same topic:
