I say "fine" because SF tends to be very verbose, which is capitalizing on scid's tcl/tk threading performance. > so it gives me an > error message "error starting analysis" "unable to start program" (the > engine). When I click ok on the error message, scid closes. This is a Scid bug.

Check out $HOME/.scid/ and remove the configuration stuff in there. BTW: Scid (probably) only starts the analysis engine over and over again, because you saved your scid window(s) layout (under options) while the analysis window was there. And, thinking a bit further, probably only after that you (installed and) selected the SF crashing engine..
