Hi!

I compiled eeshow package from experimental, thanks for the debianization!

I found eeshow doesn't really work with modern KiCad versions (I'm using 
5.1.5 from backports).

The problem is that KiCad currently references components like this: 
LIBRARY:COMPONENT and eeshow just looks for COMPONENT.

Another problem is that KiCad no longer lists the used libraries in the 
project or schematic.

To solve these problems I'm using the attached patch.

This patch:

1) Forces the load of PROJECT-cache.lib where all the used symbols are 
supposed to be.

2) Changes the LIBRARY:COMPONENT references to the format used in the 
cache: LIBRARY_COMPONENT

Regards, Salvador
