PSD 15.1 Concept HDL + Allegro: Problem with libraries

    Hello,
    our faculty switched from Mentor to Cadence PSD 15.1.
    For my first steps with Concept HDL and Allegro I drawed a simple
    flip-flop using 7400 gates from the 7400 library.
    When attempting "File/Export Physical" netrev produces the following
    error:
    #1 ERROR(302) Device library error detected.
    Problems with device '7400'. JEDEC_TYPE property
    'DIP.100/14/W.300/L.800' is illegal: 'Package name is not legal.'.
    Device '7400' has library errors. Unable to transfer to Allegro.
    After reading three manuals (1400 pages in summary) I found out the
    JEDEC_TYPE entry in the chips\chips.prt file should contain the name
    of a part/package symbol (i.e. 'dip14_3').

    For the analog library the problem is similar. The R and C symbols have
    JEDEC_TYPE entries 'RC05' and 'CK05' but there is no rc05.dra or ck05.dra
    in ...\psd_15.1\share\pcb\pcb_lib\symbols. So I had to change the
    JEDEC_TYPE to 'res400' and 'capck05'.

    Do I have to edit several thousands of chips.prt files manually or is there
    an easier way to make the libraries usable?

    Thanks

    Dirk
