Ubuntu 11.10 - I found a fix! Scripts from Runtime folder are not installing.

After compiling wxWidgets 2.9.3, flam3, and Electric Sheep v2.7b33, I was getting a black screen with a white box/square in the center. I left it running and still nothing changed. Also, I had a problem where the preferences were not storing or loading any changes I made. After running electricsheep-preferences from CLI this last time, I noticed it output the following line: "SetInstallation: /usr/local/share/electricsheep/Scripts" So I went to this directory and behold, there was no "Scripts" folder.

To fix this, I went back to the "electricsheep-read-only" folder (which was in my Downloads folder), and snooped around a bit. I copied the "Scripts" folder from here into "/usr/local/share/electricsheep/" and re-ran "electricsheep-preferences".
