I installed using apt-get install blogilo but the result was the error I
sent a screenshot of. I'll see if Bilbo is available instead. Thanks for the
link. Hopefully I'll have something to show BLUG next Thursday.

Here's someone who seems to be thinking along the same lines as you are...

baik-untuk-gnulinux/
button on the right to translate into English.

I've attached a screenshot of the dependencies.

Definitely part of KDE SC and a good fit there. But it shouldn't be that big
of a deal to install on Ubuntu.

Did you install Blogilo with a package manager? Or from source? There are
directions here http://blogilo.gnufolks.org/download/ about installing from
source that say that SQLite is required. You might also try apt-get install
blogilo or use aptitude to sort out the dependencies.

Good luck. It looks like Blogilo would be a good replacement for Live Writer
if you can get it installed.

Maybe you could bring your new toy to the blug meeting next Thursday.
There will probably be people who can help you get going. Bellingham
