I'm sorry for being so unknowing, but which CVS are you referring too? I am
using CVS for sword, but not for QT. I had hoped to understand from the
BibleTime webpage that I wouldn't have to mess with QT or KDE as long as I
was willing to stick with version 0.24:

"The installation of BibleTime is easy! If you decided to use current CVS type
make -f Makefile.dist to create the configure script.  If you have downloaded a
public release like 0.24 the configure script does exist already.  Normally the
configure script will find SWORD automatically. But sometimes it can't find the
lib and the include files of SWORD. In this case you can use the option
--with-sworddir to show configure the location of sword. "

Do you mean that even on a fresh install of Mandrake 7.1/Redhat 6.2, that in
order to get version 0.24 working that I need to re-compile QT and possibly
even KDE 1.x?

Again, I'm sorry, but I just don't want to do everything at once. Eventually I
do hope to contribute more by existing and testing more out on the "bleeding
edge", it's just that at this point I am trying to take a more cautious approach
with the OS that has become my primary desktop work environment... :-) I
want to kind of ramp up to familiarity with CVS on as little as possible before
I begin using it to upgrade everything I use (KDE, BibleTime, Mozilla, KLyX,
etc.). I am hoping to learn how to use CVS and compiling my own software
better through the effort of getting the Word of life onto my computer... :-)

Thanks so much,

Steven
