Hi,

I do have the following circuit that includes resistivities that are dependent on voltages in the network:

If I source this circuit with the normal ngspice application, everything works, but when I run it through julia, I get the following issue:

julia> NgSpice.init()
julia> NgSpice.source("temp_cir.cir")
julia> NgSpice.run()

I am not sure if this is an issue in ngspice or with the api, but as it does not happen with the application itself, I posted this issue here first.
