Bug Description

Français :
Entre 2 versions de kicad les symboles des bibliothèques de EESchema ont changé et lorsque j'ouvre un ancien schéma (de quelques mois) les symboles utilisés sont les nouveaux et donc le schéma n'a plus aucun sens. Par exemple pour l'ATMEGA8 les ports ont été inversés et des pins ont changé de place.
Il me semble que les projets kicad disposent d'un cache des symboles utilisés pour chaque projet, peut-être faudrait-il l'utiliser plutôt que les symboles locaux.
PJ : le projet avec le problème.

English :
Between 2 versions of kicad, EESchema library symbols have changed and when I open an old schematics (few months old) symbols used by kicad are the new ones so my schematic makes no sense. For example ATMEGA8 ports swtiched and some pins moved.
It seems to me that kicad projects have cache with symbols so it might be great to use it instead of local symbols.
