Component upgrade throws a false "false unused pins" error (non blocker issue)

[ceremcem]

Reproduction

Use a subcircuit (eg. Max232 circuit)
Do not use some of its pins in the parent circuit, there by define that unused pins in no-connect: section.
Any component upgrade will throw a false "false unused pins" error.

This error is not blocker, simply ignore this error.

	# TEMPORARY SECTION: Create a @_netlist object now
	# ------------------------------------------------
	for net in x=(net-merge _data_netlist)
	# We no longer need numeric labels and interface descriptions.
	netlabel = null # only one label is allowed for a net
	iface = null
	iface-label = null
	_net = []
	for elem in net
	if label=(elem.match /^__label:(.+)$/)?.1
	# Use labels if labels are present
	iface-label = label
	continue
	if i=(elem.match /^__iface:[^.]+\.(.+)$/)?.1
	# Remove temporary interface entries
	iface = i
	continue
	if i=(elem.match /^__iface:(.+)$/)?.1
	# Remove temporary interface entries
	iface = i
	continue
	if netid=(elem.match /^__netid:(.+)$/)?.1
	# this is an alphanumeric label
	if netid.match internal-numeric-netid-syntax
	# that's a number
	unless netlabel
	netlabel = netid
	continue
	else
	# that's an alphanumeric label, replace with current label
	if not netlabel or netlabel.match internal-numeric-netid-syntax
	netlabel = netid
	continue
	else
	# Add additional netlabel's to the net
	_net.push netid
	continue
	if elem.match internal-numeric-netid-syntax
	# no need for numerical netlabels
	continue
	_net.push elem
	netid = iface-label or iface or netlabel
	_netlist[netid] = _net.filter (isnt netid) |> unique
	# ------------------------------------------------
	# End of temporary section

Solution

The @_netlist object should not contain the unused, label-pin connections.
