Package: gEDA-gnetlist
Version: 20010722-3
Severity: important

gschem2pcb gives a lot of errors when used, particularly:

    Missing Attributes (uref and pin number)

Tracing the source of these errors can be very time consuming indeed.
The only way I have found to do it is to repeatedly cut the .sch file
in half to see where the errors are coming from.

This could be improved a great deal simply by giving line numbers
along with the error message.

    many thanks
