[Live-demo] Kicking of OSGeo-Live 10.0 build process - this will be a big one

[Angelos Tzotsos]

The chroot system works fine with Xenial after some tweaking.

We have a build0 with gdal, grass and qgis installed from nightly ppa.

My development branch is here to keep track of what is happening:

Cheers,
