From your e-mail I gather that you built everything by hand, right?

If so, make sure you ./configure ngspice like this:

./configure --with-xspice --prefix=/wherever --with-readline=yes
make 
su -c "make install"

The important flag is --with-xspice.  Then, in principle, this should
install ngspice properly configured to read POLY.  

If POLY still causes complaints, look at the file
${geda_install_dir}/share/ngspice/scripts/spinit (or somewhere close
to there).  Edit your spinit (SPICE init) file to uncomment the lines
specifiying where to find the codemodels.

HTH,

Stuart
