I think a bug was introduced recently that is putting tilda characters into library files.

If a field such as Footprint is blank in the eeschema library part editor, it gets put
into the library now with "~" rather than being omitted.  Even if you restart eeschema,
come back and delete the ~ character, save the part again into the library, you find the
filed with the ~ in there again.

Somebody broke something.

I have not filed a bug report, but can if this does not ring a bell.
