Thank you, Andy. You solved the problem. I didnt catch that unspc was standing for unspecified not enough sleep, too much alcool or something like that J
The problem was coming from the ULN28xx lib. The common input pin is not declared as a power pin by default . Everything is running fine now. Modifying ERC rules was not an option masking an error is not very elegant, and the problem would have been reported later on the DRC Tnks again, Andy.

Unspecified pins ALWAYS generate a warning by default. You have a few options. Ignore the warning a carry on. Do NOT to use unspecified pins, Perhaps a passive could be used instead. Modify the rules so that the warning is not generated. Click on the ERC button and then select the Options tab If you look at the Unspec pin you will see that it is set to generate warnings when connected to any other type. You can click on the little coloured squares to change the rules. DO BE CAREFUK as you might set things such that you could miss some critical errors.
