[bt-devel] Seg Fault Bibletime svn 2465 and sword svn 2536

[Thomas Crawford]

Gary, this install uses nothing but the source svn sword package or with
bibletime the clone of the git directory for bibletime.  No software
packages of sword, xiphos, or bibletime were used.

The crash is early, never finishing the initialization. The message
"Creating Bibletime's User Interface" never appears on the splash screen.
In the local .bibletime directory the directories cache, display-templates
indices, sessions get writen, but of course no Bibletimerc or
bookmarks.xml.  The splash screen shows and then 4 or 5 minutes later you
get the message "Segmentation Fault"

If I use the bibletime.2.7.2.tar.gz, it builds fine against the sword svn
2435 install.  The real problem isn't that I cannot get bibletime working on
these boxes, it is that it seems to me the git source should build also?
What's the difference?  I build these boxes and send them off to the
hinterland to be used by national pastors.  It seems to me if the svn xiphos
builds fine against the sword svn, then the bibletime git should do the
same.

Tom
