gschem version 20061020 does not seem not work like this over here. It reads the system-gschemrc after the local gafrc file. In particular the system-gschemrc resets the symbol path. This is the output of the gschem status window on start-up in the /tmp directory, where I had put a gafrc file: --------------------------->8----------------------------------------- gEDA/gschem version 20061020 gEDA/gschem comes with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY; see COPYING for more details.
