Actually, I wasn't putting the templates in the rigtht place for now.
The current patch looks for them in:

wxStandardPaths::GetExecutableDir()/../share/template/
wxStandardPaths::GetUserDataDir()/templates/

which turns out to be  /usr/share/template instead of
/usr/share/kicad/template for a ppa install.

I created a symlink and it works. Basicaly, a template is a simple
project with some meta data to tell people what it is.
