gEDA-user: DIP resistor networks in gschem and pcb ?

[armdeveloper <armdeveloper@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have a design that uses 8 identical resistors.  On the prototype,
which I created using gschem and pcb, of course, they were individual
devices.  I've been requested to change them to a DIP networked resistor
such as this one:

http://www.bourns.com/PDFs/4100R.pdf

The reason for using these over a SIP network is the power rating of 250
mW and the availability of 8 resistors in 1 package.

How does one represent this device in gschem ?  In add components, I see
resistorpack8*, but those are bussed networks.  The device I am using
has an individual connection for each resistor.

So in gschem, what component would I use ?  What footprint would I give
it ?  How do I identify which resistor of the component ? (Use the slot
attribute ?)

Thanks
