I feel like there must be an updated library out there AND this question must have been answered before, but I couldn't find it, so, sorry if it has.

I had a PCB made for a pedal I designed with Neutrik NMJ6HCD2 and NMJ4HCD2 jacks.  (I suspect a lot of you know where this is going.)  I used the Gauss Markov libraries and it turns out the pad and drill sizes are way too small.  I am now editing the part in Eagle, but can't figure out how to propagate that change to the board file.  This seems like I'm missing something obvious.

Can anyone tell me if:
1) There's an easy way to update the file with the change I made;
2) There's a better library that includes the Neutrik jacks?

Thanks!

I seem to have answered question #1 myself.  In Eagle (board view) you go:
Library -> Update -> <Select the library>

or

Library -> Update All

I still would like to know about question #2.

I used to really be with it!  That is, until they changed what "it" is.  Now, I can't find it.  And, I'm scared!  --  Homer Simpson's dad
