Ah yes, I hadn't implemented this. Now searching LibDir and the
default paths from common/gestfich.cpp:KicadDatasPath should work,
too.

The searching can be a bit too optimistic: if you've deleted or
moved a file, eeshow may still find it in the underlying commit
(if on a repo) and seem to magically resurrect it. Such foibles
will go away once I rewrite the path lookup logic, which currently
underestimates how complex setups may really get.

Thanks !
