Hi Jack, Sorry for the late reply. I was distracted by other problems.

That gives a long list. The libraries seem to be all appropriately redirected. The only files under /usr/local/ are from Balsa. (Mageia normally doesn't install anything there.) There are a lot of Balsa files under /usr/local/share/. That includes the applications/ folder with Balsa .desktop files. That may be why I don't see balsa & balsa-ab in the menu, and why the help files don't display. In my env variables I found XDG_DATA_DIRS= /usr/local/share:/usr/share with a space after =. None of the other environment variables have a space there. Removing the space didn't correct any problem. Discovering the option --with-help-dir= , I tried setting it to where balsa puts help files. ie, /usr/local/share/help/ I didn't forget to redo configure, make, & make install (as root). Still no help files. Maybe I should specify the path to the language I use ? (adding fr/balsa/ in my case) Anyway, still experimenting. Thanks again for your help. -- André _______________________________________________ balsa-list mailing list [email protected] https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/balsa-list
