The fp-lib-table is mostly consistent with libraries on github but some of the libraries are going to be removed (I asked Carl some time ago and he said he's going to remove them before stable release).
The list I suggested:
Capacitors_Elko_ThroughHole.prettyHousings_SOT.prettyHousings_SOT-23_SOT-143_TSOT-6.prettyHousings_SOT-89.prettyHousings_TO-12_TO-18_TO-42_TO-43.prettyHousings_TO-50.prettyHousings_TO-78.prettyHousings_TO-92.prettyTransistors_SMD.prettyTransistors_TO-220.prettyTransistors_TO-247.prettyPower_Packages_SMD.prettyPower_Packages_ThroughHole.pretty
Pentawatts.prettyHousings_ROHM.pretty
Sockets_PGA.prettyMuonde.prettyPrinttrafo_CHK.prettyCrystals_Oscillators_SMD.prettyOscillator-Modules.pretty

I'm being lazy which is why I asked for fp-lib-table.for-github to be
kept up to date. I have several custom fp-lib-tables that I use for
testing purposes. This is one of them. When I want to test the latest
github footprint library changes, I would rather not have regenerate it
every time with the fp-lib-table wizard to make sure I have the latest
and greatest fp-lib-table. For normal users, this probably isn't needed
but developers may find this useful. At least this developer finds it
useful. It really shouldn't be that difficult to maintain. I haven't
looked lately but have we added or removed that many footprint library
repos since we started maintaining them on github?
