Ok, makes sense now.

Needed to add "sudo" to the "make install" commands as they accessed 
directories beyond user's control.
However as the "mk-deb-chroot" changes sudoers file to allow 
passwordless sudo, the script doesn't need user to enter the password.

alliance-check-toolkit, coriolis-2.x, and yosys.
Their ownership is already set to the user (as the script is run by a 
normal user), but do you want to make sure that all files inside have 
the right ownership?



I've committed a new script called "coriolis_install" into 
"dev-env-setup", however I won't modify "coriolis2-chroot" until I test 
again by setting up fresh chroot tomorrow using "mk-deb-chroot" (the one 
I currently have I probably mucked up after multiple runs).
After running my script, cgt opens up, and I'm able to view 
"arm_chip_cts_r" floorplan (what's instructed on the coriolis2 wiki page).


Also, during installation of alliance, at the very end I get these errors:

convert-im6.q16: attempt to perform an operation not allowed by the 
security policy `EPS' @ error/constitute.c/IsCoderAuthorized/408.
make[3]: *** [Makefile:11: genview.eps] Error 1

make[1]: *** [Makefile:1012: install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/rohdo/alliance/build/documentation'

These just looks like errors for generating documentation, does it look 
familiar at all?
