Hi all.

Sorry if this issue (as I can expect) has already been raised. I'm running Manjaro (hence Arch) and a recent update caused gEDA pcb to no longer be able to import my schematics. FTR I usually draw my schematics with gschem, run pcb and then import the schematics and voilà — actually I have a script that does all that but that's not the point here. I tried to run gnetlist on the command line but I noticed it needed Python 2 to work properly and the latter was removed from my machine so I installed it again but here's what I get when I run gnetlist --list-backends, for instance:

Backtrace:

ERROR: In procedure string-append:
ERROR: In procedure string-append: Wrong type (expecting string): #f
Failed to load RC file [/usr/share/gEDA/system-gafrc]

I don't know what to do at this point to sort this out so I need a little helping hand.

Thanks a *lot* in advance,
Claudio
