Here is what I did (in a linux terminal):

$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous AT cvs DOT gedasymbols DOT org:/cvs/gedasymbols
$ cvs login
$ cd /Net/cvs/
$ mkdir cvs.gedasymbols.org 
$ cd cvs.gedasymbols.org/
$ cvs co .

I.e. I put my stuff in /Net/cvs/cvs.gedasymbols.org/.

You say you have put your stuff in CVSROOT, so you have someting like:

$ ls www/user/

somewhere within that directory. I have thoose directories in 
/Net/cvs/cvs.gedasymbols.org/www/user/

I add them with a line of:

 (component-library-search "/Net/cvs/cvs.gedasymbols.org/www/user" "cvs")

in my  ~/.gEDA/gafrc
You need a gschem not older that 10-11 months (I think).

I have not tested any procedure for including footprints (for the 
moment).
