Hi Gene,

what actual commands are run by your makefile?  What error messages (if 
any) do they show?  (The executed commands are usually printed in the 
terminal after you run "make", unless this has been suppressed.)

How does it show that they "do not work"?  Probably the command-line 
invocation and output give a clue what's going wrong here, too.

"gnetlist-legacy" is only included in the release as a fallback for the 
case that there are incompatibilities with gnetlist itself which haven't 
been fixed yet.

A lot of things have changed.  Before 1.10.0, there hasn't been a release 
in years, so the list is rather long:
