I found it. I got bitten by KiCad's internal use or relative paths again. I thought I had fixed all of those cases. Apparently not. When I save to a library in the project path, I get the empty path assertion. I was saving my libraries to a different path which isn't a problem where as you were saving to a library in the project path. I'll take another look and make sure I didn't miss this anywhere else. I should be able to get this fixed today. Thanks again for you effort and patience.
