gEDA-dev: State of the symbols library

[Peter TB Brett]

Hi folks,

The symbols library is in an absolutely shocking state, according to 
gsymcheck!  I hacked together a quick and dirty script which tells me:

  Totals: 2974 symbols 26326 warnings

Which is just under 8 warnings per symbol!

I attach the script and the current output.

Is gsymcheck wrong?  Does this mean that gsymcheck needs updating?  Or does 
there need to be a lot of work done on the libraries?

Or should we just distribute fewer libraries (most people make their own 
anyway, and a smaller library would be easier to maintain). The existing ones 
could go onto gedasymbols.org...?

Peter
