sounds 50% reasonable. g does have ktechlab installed also.

sounds like he needs to have a look.


in addition::
after have run as user 'test' and looking at '.bashrc', it hit me as to why
i may not have additional directories in my $PATH.

when i logged back in as my normal user, i checked my '.bashrc' and found
at some time in past years of using same '.bashrc' and making mods and
additions, somehow or what ever, "PATH=$PATH:custom/paths" got changed to
"PATH=custom/paths".

i inserted "$PATH:" back in, logged out, logged back in, "env|grep PATH"
to insure that default "$PATH" was there and it was. see attachment
"newpath.geo.0001"

started 'kde', opened a terminal window and entered "gpsim<cr>".

failed with same libraries missing as reported in 1st post of this thread.


so, where/who to now?
