Sparkfun footprint files for Eagle 6.2

Former Member

I've found Sparkfun files for 6.0+ but when I tried to use them in Eagle 6.2 I get a message about

 

"Loading D:/Documents/SparkFun-Boards.lbr ... 

Error:

line 5, column 6: This is not an EAGLE file."   Anyone have updated files for Eagle 6.2?

    Open up that Sparkfun library with a text editor and view the XML

    There is a line near the top that looks similar to the following

     

           
    sparkfun/SparkFun-Eagle-Libraries · GitHub

     

    It has two starnge charcters in it. One after master and the other before

    GitHub. These may be causing the issue so take them out and try again

    Hi,

     

    Thanks for giving that to try but didn't help.  I wonder what version sparkfun actually uses to allow it to work.  Maybe they stayed on 6.0.
