Yes...but I want to keep the changes in /scratchbox/ directory
tree as bare minimum... The requirement (without any hacking) to
add group "sbox" to /etc/groups is disturbing enough ;)

(I'd like to just tar my /scratchbox and move to other machine,
 extract it there and start using... but I understand there is
 no point spending expensive development time doing that)

ay!. editing bash config files (again). I've so far managed well with

$ HOME=/home/$USER DISPLAY=:2 PAGER=less LANGUAGE=en_GB /scratchbox/login

(with scratchbox 1.x setting HOME is not necessary :D)

I just want to do as little changes to the system as possible
(and installation notes short) so that there is easy and robust
way to repeat everything again when need arises (for me or someone
else). I once had "broken" scratchbox environment which compiled
software fine but the binaries just did not work. 

I'll keep running subversion out of scratchbox for command options
it does not handle -- but keep suggesting its upgrade whenever
there is suitable moment to do so.
