You are right. Or at least it works after removing them. So it seems it does look there. Github has been really slow lately, and my internet connection is pretty slow anyway, so even though I waited longer than a few seconds, it makes sense that I should have waited several minutes. In any case, the Debian package should not come with those github libraries enabled by default. That would be considered "phoning home", and it is not allowed. Having an option for the user to easily add them would be acceptable, but I'm not sure if we want that; if the package is regularly updated, getting the libraries from Debian's servers should not be a problem for most people (and the ones who do want the github sources can still add them manually). > > I had a program set up for generating .net and .cmp files as well, so I > > wouldn't need to use eeschema or cvpcb.

Ah, I see .cmp files are no longer used. I changed my program to add the information to the .net file and now it works again.
