Before filing a bug report, I thought I'd ask:

Latest code, EESCHEMA library path issue, Ubuntu Linux.

1) Load any existing schematic into EESCHEMA through the normal method.

2) Menu File | New

Immediately an error window shows up:

Load Error!

The following libraries could not be found:

  * power
  * device
  * transistors
  etc.

Looking at the library path settings after this process (Preferences |
Libraries), one sees that
/usr/local/share/kicad/template is there,

*but not /usr/local/share/kicad/library*

which is the essence of the problem I think.

Is this a bug on Linux?
