[sword-devel] Problems with Locale

[Troy A. Griffitts]

Joachim,
	I really tried hard to get KDE things to compile, but had no luck.  I
felt I would have better luck with the latest snapshot KDE2.0Beta2 (I
think) that I found on the kde website.  Maybe I should have listened to
your advice and went with the latest CVS tree.  The filenames were
something like *1.93.tar.bz2  I got Qt from this directory to compile,
and I even got KDELIBS to compile, but KDEBASE failed miserably, and
Bibletime still failed on ./configure.  Maybe I need to set environment
args or something.  I did a make install on KDELIBS and it looked like
it went into /usr/lib/*, and my KDEDIR is set to /usr.  I don't know. 
I'll keep trying if someone can help get me up and running, but I've
been getting frustrated.  Any chance someone could just produce a simple
test program that shows the error?

		-Troy.
