The 5.0 beta should work on Mint 17.3. I have it running here.

Hi Tim,

Whereas I was able to install it on a 17.2 Linux Mint, on my 17.3 fresh install I run into the same issue wsbones describes on his post (Mon Feb 15, 2016 3:56 pm). Just tried again unsuccessfully.

For anyone who is still wanting to install Bible Analyzer 5 Linux beta on Ubuntu 14.04/Linux Mint 17.2 or 17.3, this method should work successfully. It uses a PPA repository built expressly to provide a safe backport of python 3 for Ubuntu 14.04.

First: install python-wxgtk3.0

add backport repository

Code: Select all

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:adamwolf/kicad-trusty-backports
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install python-wxgtk3.0
Next: install bible analyzer 5

download from earlier in this thread

Finally: remove remove backport ppa

This worked on my Linux Mint 17.3 install. Hope it is useful to you.

The Linux Mint 18 release should be very soon. I ran Bible Analyzer 5 with a fresh install of the current Mint 18 beta release and it installed and ran well. Once it is released the dependency issues should be resolved.

Thanks for the tip. That works for me too.

As I had posted in private message to Tim, BA appears to run very well on any 16.04 flavor of Ubuntu/Debian. The screen issues I had reporte previously just are not there on any 16.04 flavor. I have tried it on the following:
Ubuntu 16.04
Ubuntu Mate 16.04
Ubuntu Studio 16.04
Ubuntu Gnome 16.04
Linux Mint Mate 18 Beta 16.04
Linux Mint Mate and Cinnamon 18 released version
AV Linux 2016 64-bit

Performance is clean and snappy. The only real Linux issue that is still outstanding is pinning and view locations in a physical map..
