It is assumed that a standard installation of the operating system is used.
Insert the installation media.
Click System, at the top.
Click Administration
Click Synaptic Package Manager.
Provide the user's password, if asked for it.
Click Search and search for "bibledit". Mark it for installation and click Apply to install it.
Run Bibledit and optionally install XEP.
This would give the version of Bibledit that ships with Ubuntu.
It appears that this version is broken, therefore installing a newer version is recommended.
To install a newer version, do this:
In the Synaptic Package Manager, choose menu Settings / Repositories.
In tab Ubuntu Software, tick "Source code".
Click "Close".
Click button "Reload" in the package manager.
In the Package Manager, search for "g++". At the right side of the window mark the package for installation. When it asks Mark additional required changes, click Mark.
Do the same for the following packages:
- libgtk2.0-dev
- libsqlite3-dev
- subversion
- libpopt-dev
- libxml2-dev
- libgtkhtml3.8-dev
Apply the changes.
The installer will download some packages from the installation media or the internet and takes a while to update the system.
Close the window when through.
Open a terminal by clicking Applications, Accessories, Terminal.
