Both gaf and gnetlist depends on libgeda

$ ldd `which gaf ` | fgrep libgeda.so
        libgeda.so.43 => /usr/local/lib/libgeda.so.43 (0xb6a85000)
$ ldd `which gnetlist ` | fgrep libgeda.so
        libgeda.so.43 => /usr/local/lib/libgeda.so.43 (0xb7434000)

and both are able to acess libgeda's scheme functions:

$ gaf shell
gEDA 1.9.0 (g01f8d13)

$ 

rc-config is in libgeda:

$ grep rc-config geda-gaf/libgeda/src/g_register.c 
  { "rc-config",                0, 0, 0, g_rc_rc_config },
$

But maybe libgeda is insufficient.

$ gnetlist -g bom -o tt -i test.sch
...

Ok, so things from "info geda-scheme" does not work.

Wouldn't it make sense to move things (that isn't related to a gui)
from gschem to libgeda ?
