Hi,

Am I doing something wrong, or is this a bug?

Following the instructions in dillo-0.7.0/INSTALL, I configure, compile, install and run Dillo, then click on the Bookmarks menu. Dillo crashes.

This seems to happen when dillo fails to spawn the dpi bookmark server. from your compilation instructions above, it looks like you install into a directory that is not in your $PATH, and thus the bm server can't be found. try running dpi/bm_srv12 manually, or export PATH=$HOME/bin:$PATH and it should work. otherwise it indeed looks like a bug that dillo dies when it fails to start the server.

Thanks, Philip
