gEDA-bug: [Bug 698741] Re: Problematic attribute place holder values

Hi Clif,

I applied the following two patches:

https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/698741/+attachment/1797265/+files/0001-Updated-the-problematic-name-attribute-in-some-symbo.patch
https://bugs.launchpad.net/geda/+bug/698741/+attachment/1824166/+files/0001-Minor-Changes-to-cascade-output.net-so-it-will-pass.patch

But I get:

> Running tests on backend "spice-sdb"
> FAILED: run_backend_tests.sh returned 4 failures

Any ideas?

Peter :-(

Title:
Problematic attribute place holder values

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
Triaged

Bug description:
In some gnetlist backends the name=? attributes cause problems because they look like
valid attribute values. eg file=? may be mistaken for a valid filepath, and value=? for
an actual value. Changing them to name=unknown is one way to solve this problem in the
interim. It's now safe to remove the special checks for these "?" like the one in spice-sdb.
This patch updates these problematic name=? attributes in some symbols to name=unknown,
and removes FIXME code snipit that checked for the ? value in spice-sdb.
