It seems the symbol library does not work anymore in 8.05

Can this change be related to this?

Nevermind, somehow in the xxx.kicad_sym file an extra ")" was added at some point somehow and it did not allow for further addition of parts.

Manually removed it and it seems fine now.

I had the same issue after running easyeda2kicad for the first time on an existing symbol library. The new part was added to the library file but included an extra close parenthesis ')' before the new symbol. This caused extra parenthesis closed the (kicad_symbol_lib entry in the file.

I deleted the extra ')' character and the new component showed up in KiCad.

I then ran easyeda2kicad again with a different comonent and that one worked fine (ie no extra parenthesis was added the second time)

Yes that is how I fixed it. It happens occasionally (not very often), the fix is rather easy so I dont mind it too much.
