I haven't noticed it in the future-library discussion yet, but one way
or the other, I would like some sort of namespacing or subdirectory
awareness in linked symbols. For example, I have a project with two
symbols named "pad.sym" on the search path. One is from the standard
library and the other is from [1]gedasymbols.org. Every time I start
gschem, it complains about the ambiguity.
A clunky way to sole the problem would be to encourage more unique
filenames in the library and on [2]gedasymbols.org, but ideally, the
library manager would be smart enough to know that the symbols are in
different namespaces and will not complain. I suppose those "namespace"
could be as simple as different subdirectories or as complex as an
added "namespace" attribute.
Does gEDA already a way to solve this problem that I've overlooked?
