Download
Bilbo is based on Qt4 and KDE4 libraries and uses a modified KBlog library (called BilboKBlog *).

You need KDELibs and KDEPimLibs development packages. (e.g. for Kubuntu: kdelibs5-dev and kdepimlibs5-dev)

It uses SQLite database engine to store data. so you have to install Qt4 driver for it. after release of Qt 4.4 they package it out of Qt-sql package!( In Debian-based systems such as Kubuntu, it’s libqt4-sql-sqlite).

You also need GNU GetText to build and use translations! If you don’t want them just remove “po” dir in source root.
