I have tired your suggestion, which did not work, the gEDA distribution 
taken from a PPA looks incomplete.

I have downloaded the gschem 1.9.2 source code and compiled it with no 
problems on my Linux Mint 18.3 x64 system.

All work perfectly, I think it is probably best to compile from source 
code rather than relying on pre-compiled binaries.

I have also compiled pcb-rnd with no problems.

Thank you for your help.

Regards,
Derek
