gEDA-user: Error message when creating a SUBCKT

Hi,

I'm creating a SUBCKT to simulate a 74191 counter. I use the schema provided in the datasheet and in this schema, there is an AND ic whith 5 entries.

Because the IC doesn't exist in geda library, I create it.

But when I want to generate the netlist file (.cir) to link the circuit and the symbol gnetlist generate some errors.

I've activated debug mode but the given information is not very useful.

Here's my files and the command

[ludovic@poste commandeServo]$ gnetlist -g spice-sdb -o test.cir multipleAND.sch
Command line passed = gnetlist -g spice-sdb -o test.cir multipleAND.sch
gEDA/gnetlist version 1.4.0.20080127

Could you indicate me what I'm doing wrong ?
