I probably need my head looking at, but I have been trying to compile this. First tried FatDog but meson could not find webkit2gtk where ever it looked. The dependencies weren't hard to find (meson is in the FD devx) but the webkit2gtk is probably incompatible - tried Debian, Ubuntu and opensuse but ...

A statically compiled 64 bit binary of Qalculate (which it uses) can be downloaded here:

You will need gtk3 though.
Runs ok on FatDog (there is a gtk3 sfs available). Not that I need ianother calculator though.

I don't normally use Xenial, but gave it a run and did not get any problems with openssl. It is quite possible to compile the latest version though.

It hasn't broken anything so far. libcrypto and libssl are part ...

This is part of the vivaldi-snapshot script (near the end):

# processes (http://crbug.com/376567).

Don't ask me to explain it though, as I don't have a clue.

While I wouldn't disagree with anything in regards to your views on British Telecom, I think the BT in question here may in fact refer to Bluetooth. Which at a push it could also be a reference to Tory vampires.

Are you just trying to delete the lines with no speech? E.g, keep the line with a Q, then the line with an A, then delete the next line.
Assuming the files are consistent and the unwanted lines all end with "-" (and no wanted ones do):
sed '/-$/d' file.txt

This is on FatDog. I've not added any extra plug-ins (as never had the need).
Just checked, and Fatdog has an additional plug-in package. Not sure if it is installed as standard, or maybe I did install it myself for some obscure reason.

libetpan didn't cause me any problems compiling. I've gone over all my steps using a fresh install with just the devx loaded.
Originally I just did make install, but this time I made a FatDog package.
Here are my steps, (from inside the unpacked sources of course):

mkdir BUILD

Couple of thoughts...
Either alter the path in menu.lst eg:
title Linux Mint
uuid 2ddb8fb2-7e71-4833-91a8-9f8c21edcc7c
kernel /boot/vmlinuz root=/dev/sda8 ro
initrd /boot/initrd.img

(using symlinks in the same directory should work)

Or:
Just run grub4dosconfig, and it will generate a menu ...

My SFS attempt turned out to be waste of space. It was basically running off stuff I had forgotten to remove first, and failed to load again properly after I removed the offending bits.

How did you try to start it?
The binaries start with capitals eg FAHClient (which is the main one you need to run I think).

I got it running on FatDog by combining the debs and making an SFS. First though I had manually installed them, and had to mess about with the python libs as 'fah' was not ...

That would be Bash, that would. It's a shell script, just a text file to run in a terminal.
Open a terminal where ever the file is, then type:
