Eagle import silently ignores eagle blocks (hierarchical subsheets) (lp:#1841143)
Original report created by Rene Poeschl (poeschlr)
The eagle import does not seem to be able to work with eagle schematics
that include "modules" (or blocks). KiCad should at least tell the user
that schematics using this feature are not supported.
Support for it would be nice in the long term.
