Hm -- have not used tragesym for more than a year.

Tragesym is fine, but I do not like the documentation.

Please note, input to tragesym is plain text. I really wonder why they
advertise use of spreadsheet, I have always used a plain text editor.
(OK, spreadsheet may be fine if you try to copy from pdf datasheet...)

Do not call tragesym input .sch, that is for schematics. I used .txt
extension, it is plain text. 

The version should be not current date, if I remember correctly, but
something related with gschem version. I think that version is copied to
symbols, if it is to high, gschem may refuse loading the symbol.

My final guess: There may be something wrong with your input file for
tragesym, maybe in front of version line. Watch in a plain text editor.
You may find working tragesym input files for testing at
www.gedasymbols.org.

Or fill in tragesym's template.txt with a text editor, leaving version
line unchanged.

Of course, some people prefer djboxsym, available at
www.gedasymbols.org. But tragesym is fine for me.
