gEDA-user: DRC2 Problem (gEDA-2005080313)

I just compiled gEDA-2005080313, SuSE 9.2 yesterday.

I found what seems to be a bug with gnet-drc2.scm. Creating a simple schematic of 2 resistors, having the same reference (i.e. R1), same or different values, causes the DRC2 output as shown below.

I found the problem with a slotted part, thus each slot instance has the same reference designator. This stops the DRC2 testing to complete, which deems it useless in this scenario. I had to ensure that the reference numbers differ for the slotted parts to get DRC2 to complete its test.

Creating a netlist with the same reference numbers for slotted parts worked properly.

Any suggestions or workarounds?

Thanks,

Neal
