Can you check both a footprint from a "newlib" library such as "2_pin_thru-hole_package" and from an "oldlib" library such as "~geda"? The "~" indicates oldlib. The mechanism for locating and instantiating footprints from these libraries is different. Based on what you find I'll have more questions. -Dan --
