Re: gEDA-user: netlister problem (increase number of rename_pairs)

[sdb@xxxxxxxxxx (Stuart Brorson)]

It looks to me like you just need to go into gnetlist/src, and edit
the file s_rename.c.  Change the line  

#define MAX_RENAME 64

to 

#define MAX_RENAME 256

(or some such number).  Then recompile & reinstall.

HTH,

Stuart
