Unfortunately these packages won't work under Mint as at the current 
release version (17.1).  Mint is behind Ubuntu with up-to-date updates.  
I've tried getting the dependencies, but when I got to the sdtc++ 
library, I would have started to break the system.  I've looked up what 
I did last time around, and I built Sword and BibleTime some 18 months 
ago and made packages.  It was my experimental packages that I installed 
in the next Ubuntu release. As soon as I get chance, I'll see about 
building under Mint 17.1.  I don't want to get involved in packaging 
again.  It really is a dedicated and thankless task - but I'll note what 
I have to do (symlinks etc.) and make it available as required.

Let me know if there is anything particular I can do, or make notes of, 
in order to help packagers.

Kind regards,        Barry.
