Hi-

I have been going through the latest manual for ngspice (Jan 2012). I
started by going through chapter 20.1, using the intro tutorial. It
appears that the Debian package does not include the examples directory.

For instance, Chap 20.1 uses a file entitled "xspice_c1.cir" to walk the
user through a session. This file does not appear to be included in the
Debian ngspice package.

I've had contact with Holger Vogt who says the package should contain at
least three such .cir files. AFAIK, there are no example files with the
Debian repository package that I downloaded and installed. Files which are
directly referred to in the user manual.

I'm using Wheezy, amd64.

Hope this helps,
Keith Ostertag
