Re: KiCad v5 MacOS Library Editor - Error Cannot Load Aliases
Hey Andrey,
Do you happen to still have an old library index file? I had a similar issue but not exactly the same one. I only had to delete/move ~/Library/Preferences/kicad/fp-lib-table and things went back to normal. Obviously I had to read my custom libraries that I had added before but it was a quick fix to the problem. Manually editing the libraries in bulk using the library manager was less appealing. :)
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Piotr
