Environment (OS, Python version, PySpice version, simulator)

Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS, Python 3.10, PySpice 1.5

Actual Behaviour

The last commented line from
https://pyspice.fabrice-salvaire.fr/releases/v1.5/examples/advanced-usages/internal-device-parameters.html
(compute the DC transfer function) failed

NgSpiceCommandError: Command 'run' failed

Why the last stable version doesn't work? It seems the circuit is not parsed, how do I parse it?
It also happens with PySpice 1.4, although the same line is uncommented.
