gEDA-bug: [Bug 781097] Re: gnetlist fails to use inherited refdes= attribute



I've attached a test-case.

Netlist with "gnetlist -g PCB embedded_test_case.sch"

Gives the error message:

"Could not find refdes on component and could not find any special
attributes!"

Refdes should be C100, as in the embedded symbol data.

Title:
  gnetlist fails to use inherited refdes= attribute

Status in GPL Electronic Design Automation tools:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Whilst this is a rare thing to want to do (most symbols have (if any),
  a refdes such as "U?" or "C?", I encountered a design at work which
  failed to netlist with git HEAD gEDA.

  I discovered the refdes had been attached inside the embedded copy of
  a symbol, rather than attached as a schematic level attribute of that
  symbol.

  Since it is conceivable that someone might want a symbol with a refdes
  defaulted inside it, we should probably support such usage.
