You mean in the "Library" section of the preferences? Mine contains just the single entry I put there, "/home/vanessa/Footprints" (which is actually a symlink into my gedasymbols.org repository, for readability).

Actually, let's set this point aside for now - on closer inspection, it looks like I called it wrong. The errors look like they're all related to the footprints that are getting lost. -- "There are some things in life worth obsessing over.
