First question, where does the 'local' entry in the add component menu
come from?  It doesn't appear to relate to an actual directory so it's
just a nuisance really.  Can one get rid of it?


Second question, I can't get a 'local' gafrc file to provide a
specific project symbol directory.  I've tried what it says at:-

    http://wiki.geda-project.org/geda:faq-gschem#how_do_i_configure_my_local_gafrc_to_find_my_local_symbol_directory

...  but it simply doesn't work.  If I change the "./symbols" to a
full path then it works OK so the gafrc file *is* being read.  The
directory names seems to be parsed OK because there is no command line
error (which you do get if the directory doesn't exist for example)
but it just doesn't work.
