I solved the problem by copying the files from

The question would be: Why do I need to, it doesn't quite make sense to

I think the problem is that the compiled binary is looking in one shared location, while the installer is putting things in a different location. Breaking in the debugger should reveal what that former one is...

However, aside from the shared location, the compiled binary also looks in your individual location, thus can pick things up when they are copied over to there.


Well, I'm happy for now :)


Glad you're unstuck.
