I don't know.

But I think there was a recommendation that only official gEDA-symbols
should have symversion -- so many at gedasymbols have no symversion
attribute. And of course this symversion can only work if it is updated
carefully, and it can not decide between minimal design update and
electrical changes like pin exchange. Checksums would be really fine.
