The provided package, "libborqt-new.tar.bz2", seems to
be invalid. It contains two files,
libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so and install-lib.sh

install-lib.sh is:
echo RUN AS ROOT, AND ONLY ONCE!
cp -f -R lib/ /usr/lib/kylix
echo /usr/lib/kylix >>/etc/ld.so.conf
ldconfig
echo INSTALL FINISHED!

This tries to copy recursively some files from lib/
directory, but such a directory does not exists in this
package.

When I try to run the editor, it complains about
"./editor: error while loading shared libraries:
./editor: undefined symbol: initPAnsiStrings".

Obviously some required files are missing, and the
package (libborqt-new.tar.bz2) either has invalid
install-script or is also missing those files.

I did try copying the libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so to
/usr/local/lib (which is mentioned in /etc/ld.so.conf),
and then run ldconfig - but this didn't help. Editor
gave same error message.

What file should I install to get this bbe-editor working?

    I managed to solve this. BlackBallEd needs these 3 files:

    libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so
    libqtintf-6.9.0-qt2.3.so
    libqt.so.2.3.0

    I got some help from
    http://homepages.borland.com/efg2lab/Library/Kylix/deployment.htm
    There is also a script to start kylix 3 apps so that you
    don't need su for install.

    If BlackBallEd is put to /home/malaire/BlackBallEd and
    deploy-files to /home/malaire/BlackBallEd/deploy then you
    can start it with following script:

    #!/bin/bash
    cd /home/malaire/BlackBallEd
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/malaire/BlackBallEd/deploy
    ./editor

    This doesn't need any installing with superuser rights.

    (I have Linux - SuSe 9.1 Personal)

    I forgot to mention that in addition to those 3 files, you
    also need 3 symlinks in that deploy/ directory. Then the
    mentioned script will start BlackBallEd, without needing any
    prior installing.

    These symlinks are:

    libborqt-6.9-qt2.3.so -> libborqt-6.9.0-qt2.3.so
    libqtintf-6.9-qt2.3.so -> libqtintf-6.9.0-qt2.3.so
    libqt.so.2 -> libqt.so.2.3.0
