Sorry for the confusion,  it turns out the user reporting the problem was
copy/pasting incomplete InChIs  ... I wish InChI package had  less cryptic
error reporting.

Still ChemSpider searching seems to be only one to cope with incomplete
InChI  - is it possible with (any) InChI library to achieve something
similar - e.g. extract only a skeleton from available InChI layers ?

Thanks,
Nina
