I know that this is supposed to be a developer's list, but I need some help
getting bibletime to run.
I have a Red Hat 7.3 workstation and I have firstly downloaded
bibletime-1.2.1.tar.bz2 and followed the instructions for installation. I
also downloaded Sword and installed it and the KJVlite module and unzipped it
into /usr/share/sword.
I then downloaded bibletime-doc-1.2.1.tar.bz2 and installed it.
However, I still couldn't get it to run.
By this time the Red Hat 7.3 RPMs (bibletime-1.2.1-1.rh73.i386.rpm and
bibletime-doc-1.2.1-1.rh73.noarch.rpm) had been released and so I ran a "make
uninstall" and then installed the RPMs. While the KJVlite module had already
been installed, I re-installed it again and started Bibletime.
On startup, I get:
Chapter 7. No modules installed!
There are no installed Sword modules!
Does anyone know why this is hapenning?
Now in complete frustration, I have downloaded the Gnomesword RPM and tried to
install it:
rpm -ivh gnomesword-0.7.3-7.3.2.i386.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
libsword.so.1 is needed by gnomesword-0.7.3-7.3.2
It seems that Linux has a LOOOOOOOOOOOOONG way to be as user-friendly as
Windows.
