This is a minor issue. I am a member of the SKCC group. I have 2 SKCC member lists with my CQRLOG (V2.3.0) install. The original in /usr/share/cqrlog/members and the updated one in ~/.config/cqrlog/members. Here is the problem, when I type a call, for instance mine, WB6IZG it gets the data from the old list and not the new list. The behavior I am seeing is if the info is in both lists it uses the old list. If the info is only in the updated list it uses that.
The problem is the member numbers can change as one climbs levels. For instance I started out as 17714 then 17714C then 17714T and now 17714S. When I type my call I get 17714 and not 17714S in CQRLOG.
Thanks,

HI!
Have you tried to delete (move to safe) the old file from /usr/share/cqrlog/members and then making a symlink to updated one in ~/.config/cqrlog/members ?
Using command console:
sudo mv /usr/share/cqrlog/members/skcc.txt ~/skcc.safe.txt
sudo ln -s ~/.config/cqrlog/members/skcc.txt /usr/share/cqrlog/members/skcc.txt
Moves old one to your home directory as skcc.safe.txt and then makes symlink to replace original.
If it works ok you can delete the safe file.

Bruce,
you don't need to have an old membership list in /usr/share/cqrlog/members. You can delete (or move) the whole /members directory. It is safe. CQRlog uses the list located in /home/~/.config/cqrlog/members/skcc.txt which can be also auto updated whenever a new version appears.
The membership lists in /usr/share/cqrlog/members are important only if CQRlog is started for first time. Then they can be deleted because they are considered as a "backup" only.
