See the script <src>/scripts/library-repos-install.sh

The first time you run it use the --install-prerequisites option.

Then --install-or-update

Then read the top about swapping your ~/fp-lib-table, and setting an environment variable,
which can be done by editing

   /etc/profile.d/kicad.sh

and logging out and back in again.
