Subject:	[geda-user] how to avoid 'Cant find PINLABEL pin1 called for in netlist'?

For hierarchical design, I use an io symbol containing a pin with pinnumber
and pinseq attributes for each point where a connection to the subcircuit
is intended.  In the subcircuit schematic, that symbol then gets pinlabel
and refdes attributes set to the desired PINLABEL, and I create a subcircuit
symbol containing pins with a matching PINLABEL attribute (and appropriate
source attribute) for use in the main circuit.

It all works but PCB ends up complaining:

     'Cant find PINLABEL pin1 called for in netlist'

This makes me sad because I don't ever get to see PCB congratulate me on my
completed layout :/

What is the simple way to avoid this problem?

Thanks,
Britton
