Hello everyone, This is a patch for a minor annoyance that we have with cvpcb.
If multiple modules have a footprint called "SOT23", cvpcb will list both. However, if you click on the "view selected footprint" button for the both of them (to check the differences), you will find that you will be looking at the same footprint twice. The pcbnew program will also pick the footprint from the first module library that it finds it in (which is why the library order is important). This patch does two things: 1) it simply does not add duplicate footprints in the list, and 2) it adds an extra field in the status bar of cvpcb that tells you which library the footprint comes from.
