Hi!

I've used kicad for quite a while now, and during the time I have done some 
minor changes and added modules to the original module libraries (yes, I know, 
it would be better if I made my own lib for moy own modules, but that's a 
different story)

Anyway, I use linux (PCLinuxOS) and just bought a new PC where I installed the 
new PCLinuxOS as well. I installed Kicad automatically through the rpm and all 
seemed to work fine.

But I wanted my personal modules from the old PC, so I compressed the folder 
/usr/share/kicad and transferred it to my new PC. Then I replaced the files 
with my old ones.

I could use the modules as normal, but now I had to make a change on one 
module. But I couldn't save it in the library!

I got the errors:

Librari.cpp: rename NewLib err

Impossible to overwrite the file 'usr/share/kicad/modulesvalves.mod' (error 1: 
Operation not allowed)

I checked user settings for the files: user was root, and only that user could 
change or delete files, so I changed the settings so all users could change and 
delete the files., but I still got the same error messages.

I exported my edited part to my home folder and closed kicad - and opened 
again, but kicad can't change files in the library anymore!

Could anybody help me?
