KiCad library distribution

 

Hello.

Currently KiCad can use footprints directly from github or local copy, also we 
have footprints library wizard. But we don't have any easy to use wizards for 
schematic and 3d libraries except "library-repos-install.sh" script (I use 
modificated version).
In this situation linux distributives are forced to create kicad-library 
packages (I'm talking as openSUSE maintainer). But it is not possible to 
update such packages regularly in all cases. So I guess it is necessary to 
upgrade library wizard.
