Indeed, I missed it because these symbols are stored in different
directories:

stefan@AMD64X2 ~/gEDA/DAQ-Board $ locate lm741
/usr/share/gEDA/sym/linear/lm741-1.sym
stefan@AMD64X2 ~/gEDA/DAQ-Board $ locate opamp
/usr/share/gEDA/sym/analog/dual-opamp-1.sym
/usr/share/gEDA/sym/analog/opamp-1.sym
/usr/share/gEDA/sym/analog/opamp-2.sym
/usr/share/gEDA/sym/analog/quad_opamp-1.sym

I still think that a symbol with a general name like opamp should be
related to a general package.

Yes, I know the discussion about heavy and light symbols. For me this is
not really a problem, I was only confused. Maybe we should store heavy
and light symbols in different locations. (For me it was not obvious
after finding opamp-1.sym (and opamp-2.sym) to search for lm741 to find
an ordinary DIP8 OpAmp).
