Bug Description

Binary package hint: geda-gnetlist

These two backends were broken upstream between the 1.2.x and 1.4.x series.
The following upstream commit fixes the problem:

commit db168efbbe2656ef2103852e92e02ec3ce58e300

    Fix verilog and VHDL netlist backends

    These were inadvertently broken when making core gnetlist changes to
    accomodate slotting in spice-sdb. Since the netlist backend is loaded
    before gnetlist has traversed the schematic, the backends must not
    execute any code which queries gnetlist on load. All such work is
    to be done only when gnetlist invokes the (<backend>) method.

Patch should be applied to the 1.4.0 release version.

I've built the package on my box with Aanjhan's new .diff.gz, and can confirm a sucessful build and install on Hardy.

The resulting package fixes the errors netlisting to VHDL and verilog formats.
