bin/x86 was already updated (statically linked 0.24 version, the same as in 
bibletimebase.tar.gz without pixmaps and icons).
I do not have a newer bibletimebase.tar.gz because it's impossible to create 
a statically linked program with the libraries of KDE 2.x.

Could you please test the install process under Linux installing BiblTime? 
I'm not sure if everything works, but it should.
