[bt-devel] Missing bt-printing

[Fred Saalbach]

These two things might be related to the inability to find things.

Launch bibletime by running the bibletime.start script.  (or run the script in
a teminal manually).  This sets up the environment for bibletime (ie tells the
system where the bibletime files and binaries are.
---------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh
#
####################################
#
# This script sets system variables and launches bibletime.
#
#
####################################
export KDEDIRS=/usr/local/kde2   #this tells the session where kde2 is
export PATH=$KDEDIRS/bin:$PATH   #this adds the kde2 directory to path
                                 #(without this BT will not find some
                                 #parts of itself)
exec bibletime                   #launches bibletime


-------------------------------------------------

make sure that the following files exist

/etc/ld.so.conf
containing this line (and possibly others)
/usr/local/sword/lib  #must point to the directory containing  libsword.so


/etc/sword.conf
Containing these lines
[Install]
DataPath=/usr/local/sword/share/  #must point to the location of the sword
folders locales.d, mods.d, and modules.
------------------------------------------------------------

If this does not help you have a problem that is new to me and one of the
programmers will need to look at the problem.
