Maybe this was a temporary problem with Kubuntu packages (or I just had
something wrong), after an upgrade and some other tweaking the build
system started to work. But now I have another problem: build-debug.sh
or corresponding manual steps don't work: there's no build/install
directory after "make install". There is the bibletime binary in build/
directory but it doesn't work alone.


I updated the changelog, I should have done it earlier. It's not a good
practice to change the changelog afterwards but maybe we can accept this
now? You can of course change it back or move some text up.

I have also some text for the release announcement. There's no news
item yet, I can write it too if I have time. Hopefully I manage to get a
grasp on the code and coding again after a longish break.
