[Gambas-user] Gambas2-2.5.0 can't find the example projects

I have tried everything that I can think of, but I still cannot open any 
of the example projects in gambas2-2.5.0. I started with rpm files from 
LDRWEB.net for Fedora 8 (gambas2-2.5.0-1.FC8.ldrweb.i386.tgz). As I am 
not fluent in Spanish I cannot find out anything about it. I found the 
site while searching for answers to my problems in installing the 
earlier version on Fedora 7, which I did get going using the files from 
this site.

I can operate all other features from the starting screen, but will get 
an error when I click on any of the example projects:

This project does not exist.
/usr/share/gambas2/examples/category of list/name of project.

OK

The projects do exist as I can find them where they should be. I 
duplicated my Fedora 7/Gambas2-2.4.1 setup when I went to Fedora 
8/Gambas2-2.5.0. On both I created a group "gambas" putting myself as a 
member of the group. I then had changed the group ownership of 
/usr/share/gambas2 from root to gambas using the recursive option so all 
subdirs would reflect the change. This setup works fine in the Fedora 
7/Gambas2-2.4.1 setup. Does anyone know why it doesn't in the Fedora 
8/Gambas2-2.5.0?

I hate to be a PITA about this but I'm learning basic from scratch and 
want to use these examples in the process.

TIA
(PITA) Scott
