Re: Error updating standard Kicad footprint libraries from Github

 

Ok
   I have to replace my AppData\Roaming\Kicad\fp-lib-table file with:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/KiCad/kicad-library/master/template/fp-lib-table.for-github
it seems the installer must not be updating this file when Iv moved from old versions?
After doing this I am able to access all libraries.
Shall I file a bug on launch pad?
Thanks
Dan

Can I draw your attention to this post on the forum:
https://forum.kicad.info/t/github-footprints-problem/1935/4
I have been having this problem over a week now on the Stable 4.0.1 build, I can get around it be using Cvpcb to assign footprints.
But it prevents footprint assignment from eeschema.
Let me know if I can give further assistance debugging.
