betterbibtexkey directory not found

Open evan-bailey opened this issue 4 years ago • 1 comments

On Ubuntu 20.04 with Zim 0.73 and Zotero 5.0.89

Plugin works well if link format is set to bibliography or key, but easykey and betterbibtex don't work currently.

Tried following instructions in the readme.md re: gio commands but this did not solve issue. (default install directory for zotero.desktop was /usr/share/applications/zotero.desktop for those looking).

When trying to use betterbibtex get an error saying the directory cannot be found, but with the other link formats it works perfectly.

easykey causes the Zim app to crash

the output of the cat /usr/share/applications/zotero.desktop is:

Name=Zotero
Comment=Open-source reference manager
Exec=/usr/lib/zotero/zotero --url %u
Icon=/usr/lib/zotero/chrome/icons/default/default256.png
Type=Application
Categories=Office;Education;Literature
StartupNotify=true

Would love to know how to get this working because I love the plugin! Thanks.

Thank you for reporting the issue @evan-bailey I will look into it.

Just for confirmation, do you Better BibTeX installed in Zotero?
