Yes, this is an issue that should be fixed. However I see the two different ways to solve this issue:
- We fix the pin numbers for generic symbols of these linear regulators and leave them in
regul.lib
library for quite backward compatibility. Of course this will not be the full compatibility, because we need to apply KiCad Lib Convention (KLC) rules. So at least pin endings might/will be not at the same positions anymore. - We remove all these generic symbols, because we have many counterparts of 78L05 series regulators in this library: LM78L05ACZ, MC78L05AACP, etc., which have correct pinning, link to datasheet, housing and are correct in terms of KLC, and might be used as template symbols for others.
I'm rather for this second option, even if this smash a few schematics (We did already worse things :) ).
That is my position on this issue. Now I'm waiting for Yours, and other key librarians: Carl, Ricardo, Michał (Sorry if I skipped someone).

I'd go for deleting them as well.

The pins names issues will be fixed when #223 pull request will be merged. The question about remove generic symbols still remains...
from kicad-library.
I can take advantage and remove this symbols too. They are: 7805, 78L05, 7805MS, 7905, 79L05.
Any other else?
Removing them I'll have to convert some LM7*** alias to real symbols.

@Calu85 Hi can you please consider closing this issue if its not relevant any more?
from kicad-library.
OK. I hadn't noticed it was still opened.

Hi so what the resolution.Im still getting stuck on check not accepting the 7805
from kicad-library.
You might want to give more details here. I have no clue what you are talking about.
from kicad-library.
Please also note that regul.lib received a complete workover (see #948) Maybe that fixes your problems (i.e. update your libs and try to exchange your symbols for new ones ...)
Best,
