gEDA-user: Empty netlist file!

[dfro at umich.edu]

In pcb I am getting the error message "Empty netlist file!" when I try 
and load a netlist into a new .pcb file that has been generated by gsch2pcb.

Looking into the file with a text editor, it is definitely not empty and 
looks like any other netlist file:

unnamed_net37 CONN8-3 U2-6
unnamed_net36 CONN8-2 U2-5
..... etc.

I am running pcb version 20060822 in Ubuntu-Studio

Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thanks,

Dave
