BibleTime 0.2x is for KDE 1, so it's much more simple to compile it because 
KDE1 is normally installed with every distibution. I hope you have not messed 
up your KDE1 with KDE stuff.

Get BibleTime 0.25 from CVS (cvs -z4 checkout bibletime)
Get current SWORD from CVS (you'll probably have it already :)
enter BibleTime's directory

make -f Makefile.cvs
./configure
make
make install
bibletime #start BibleTime 0.25

The problem does only occur with locales, if locales are disabled it works. 
You can enable and disable the locale support in the optionsdialog.
To see the problem enter "Psa" in the editline, normally it would be made to 
"Psalmen" with German booknames, but it simply shows Genesis 1:1.
Some books work, others don't.
If you search for something like "God" and you are using locales clicking on 
the list items will shows Genesis , not the right key, but again only for 
some keys.

All the things above worked with the pre snashot of SWORD 1.51, you can get 
it at www.bibletime.de.

Thank you for this Troy! It's good to have somebody with good connections to 
Trolltech here on the list!
