Does this not illustrate a yes to your question? >>> /i/pcbs/kicad_parts$ ll mylib* >>> -rw-rw---- 1 dick develop 286715 Apr 16 2018 mylib.bak >>> -rw-rw---- 1 dick develop 785 Sep 27 16:12 mylib.bck >>> -rw-rw---- 1 dick develop 785 Sep 27 16:12 mylib.dcm >>> -rw-rw---- 1 dick develop 300397 Sep 27 16:12 mylib.lib > > entry in the project file? After remapping, is there a mylib library > entry in the project symbol library table with the correct path? NO, because there is no sym-lib-table file being created in the project directory. I start the process with just the *.sch and the *.pro file in the directory, nothing else. Then start eeschema from the command line with the schematic on the command line.
