What version of gattrib are you using? I opened a bug report on SourceForge about what seems to be the same problem back in 2009:
Bugs item #2793743, was opened at 2009-05-19 11:18 The version of gattrib I was using then was 1.4.0.20080127 from the Debian lenny repos. I don't know if that bug report can still be accessed since the SourceForge Tracker had been disabled: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=818426&aid=2793743&group_id=161080 Sorry, knowledge buffer now empty.
