Alas, it fails on my fully patched Ubuntu 8.0.4 on amd64 installation.
With eager anticipation to finally use my Bibletime again after the 64
bit problem in the personal commentary kept me away for a few years, I
installed the crosswire ppa and enabled hardy backports.

I then upgraded Bibletime and Sword.  On Bibletime's first start, it
detected a KDE 3 configuration and offered to import to which I said yes
(I am still running KDE 3.5).  Then nothing.  I tried from the command
line and it generated a segmentation fault.  I rebooted just in case and
started Bibletime from the command line.  Again, segmentation fault - no
additional information.

Any idea what I need to do to get my beloved Bibletime working at last?
Thanks - John
