Stuart, thanks for your suggestion, but even gnetlist suggested it before you did. I took the suggestion earlier, and it produced no useful information. I even used the -vv option, which was not in the documentation. I understand that many posters here don't bother reading the documentation. I do. Thanks.

Oh, well. Umm, did you run gnetlist with the -v flag set? The -v flag turns on verbose mode, which can often provide info about which component or net is failing. BTW: This *is* documented if you do "gnetlist --help" or "gnetlist -v", or even "man gnetlist". Stuart
