Good. I may have incorrectly named the bug report, but it is near the destination links (ratsnest) in PCBNew. Pay attention to the moment when I delete the footprint, then add it through the "Update from current Board"button. Pay attention to the ratsnest. Then pay attention to how the ratsnest changes when I click the "Update from current Board"button.

Perhaps what is written below is a topic for another report:
--I know that there is such a button "update footprint on current PCB". The most interesting thing is that it becomes inactive when you open the footprint from the printed circuit Board for editing and save it in another (your library). Perhaps there is no reference in the current assignment to this footprint yet. Well, reassign the component changed footprint, but when you apply an update from the scheme footprint does not change, is not updated to a new one. For example, some footprint are the wrong diameter planting holes. Default is 0.8 the hole and in fact the electronic component, the diameter of the pin is 0.5. The hole should be 0.6. Therefore, the footprints have to be corrected and, in order not to change the default footprints, I save the changed ones in a separate place, which is available for both reading and editing.--
