Hello,

I have the following issue:
Assigning new footprints and exporting the netlist does not touch CvPCB. 
Deleting the component file (*.cmp) fixes the issue.
Can please fix it that way, that the components are updated when 
exporting to CvPCB?
(It may be that CvPCB only reads the *.cmp stuff - didn't not checked 
that issue) but in my eye it should prefer the newer file (date).

Also importing to PCBNEW has a issue: Importing from the component file 
works, but using the netlist still uses the old components, others then 
assigned in CvPCB.
The issue is that CvPCB does only update the components, not the netlist 
file. (Checked with editor). It would be great if both files are updated.

Please give me feedback, when this issue is fixed.

Thanks,
Michael
