Library not working with Kicad 6.0.11 under Linux
The readme states that you need at least KiCAD v.6 to use the library, but I'm experiencing some problems: as soon as I try to add a component to my schematic this load error pops up:
Errors loading symbols:
Error loading symbol library fabacademy. KiCad was unable to open this file because it was created with a more recent version than the one you are running. To open it you will need to upgrade KiCad to a version dated 20220914 or later.

Up until now I was using an old version of the fab library (I was still on commit d11cdf89). I'm running debian sid, and kicad 7.0 is yet to be packaged.
Googling around I found this forum post. Manually changing the header seems quite the dirty hack, but it will suffice at least until ver. 7.0 lands on Debian
