ngspice simulation fails on a fresh thesdk_template v1.8 #17

I just cloned a fresh thesdk_template v1.8 and the inverter simulation fails with the following output:

Seems like use ngspice is missing from sourceme.csh in thesdk_template.

'use' is Aalto specific, but I think it can be added as there is a check if 'use' exists, and if it does it will run the use scripts. otherwise it will just prínt a reminder to add the software to path. Current releas cndidate branch is 1.9_RC.

I think this can be closed. We could write the tests for availability of the software as part of the simulator packages.
