gEDA-dev: chroot'd geda suite (was Gschem and Cairo)

[John Griessen]

Hi Tibor,

After doing a rsync backup of my linux installation, I tried it and get gschem 
to run and draw lines, pcb to run and draw lines
when launched from the project manager menu.  The files wrote to 
/root/home/geda/  under the geda-test directory.  My distro is debian linux 
unstable.  All was well behaved, so I'm not anticipating needing that backup :-)
It's just a routine way I use my computer anyway, making backups on 
new-old-stock Sun scsi 9GB drives that were obsolete before they ever got used 
at a high price, and now sell for $10.
