Indeed, INSTALL text for gschem 1.4.3 lists symbols package as prerequisite to install gschem. And in geda-symbols-1.4.3.tar.gz archive there is a fonts/ directory with files named like A.sym. OK, nearly all users will need schematics symbols for gschem, so it is no problem that gschem depends on symbols package. But in my opinion it would make sense to put these font glyphs in the gschem package, reducing dependencies. Is there any advantage to have gschem font glyphs in the symbols package? Maybe it is a result from old days when a package have to fit on a floppy disk?
