[bt-devel] Suse 9.2 problems

[Gary Sims]

Hi guys,

I have a friend who wants BibleTime on Suse 9.2... I found a post by Joachim 
which explains how to built it from the Suse 9.1 src rpms. Which I did for 
Sword (downloaded from the BibleTime sourceforge site), I had some build 
trouble with BibleTime (see next email), but I got a version built in the 
end. When he runs BibleTime he gets a segmentation fault. A quite look in gdb 
shows:

Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.

Which shows it is a problem in sword... Has anyone else seen this. I tried 
looking on the web but I only found one post which didn't help.

Thanks,

Gary
