Thank you for reporting the problem.
The Gibbs reactor does not actually require a reaction package; it only performs equilibrium reactions and can derive pseudo reactions with pseudo stoichiometries from an element balance. It does not require equilibrium constants or reaction rates. More info on this particular reactor is given in
van Baten, J.M., Szczepanski, R., A thermodynamic equilibrium reactor model as a CAPE-OPEN unit operation, Computers and Chemical Engineering 35 (2011) 1251-1256
You can operate it with reactions from a reaction package (which was obviously buggy, and fixed now), in case for example elemental information is not available from the thermo, or in case EnthalpyF is not available and the reaction package therefore supplies heats of reaction.
In any case, the problem is now fixed and available via CUP. Thank you again for your feedback.
