Title:
  Poor reporting of schematic load errors

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  New

Bug description:
  libgeda doesn't signal an error when a schematic or symbol file
  contains invalid syntax, or when any other load error is encountered.

  For example, gnetlist succeeds even when the input schematics
  specified contain unusable garbage.

  Steps to reproduce:

  ÂÂecho GARBAGE > test.sch;
  ÂÂif gnetlist -ggeda test.sch > /dev/null 2>/dev/null
  ÂÂthen
  ÂÂÂÂecho Succeeded
  ÂÂelse
  ÂÂÂÂecho Failed
  ÂÂfi

  Expected output:

  ÂÂFailed

  Actual output:

  ÂÂSucceeded

  Thanks to Peter Clifton for pointing out this problem.
