yes.

What square bracket?
Yes, I have the footprint attributes set correctly. The traditional 
gsch2pcb has no trouble locating the footprints. The import action
works fine for components that have a unique name in my lib. But for  
generic footprint names like 0805 the import action chooses the version
from the default lib. This is very certainly not what I want. If it were
me, there should be no defaulting to the default lib at all.
