Sorry made bad mistake. On my last post it should have read: "Claws-mail now starting from my HD install" instead of "not".
Abnormis I did all that and it came back no missing dependencies.
I am using the current version.
Since both the install to the HD and to the flash drive give the same errors, something must be amiss.
I will make a new installation to the flash drive and will see if that error persists then.
