I have planned two other features for that release (along with a few bug fixes). One is almost there, the other one... Well, we'll see how it turns out... Worst case I'll release 0.0.7 without it in the weekend.
And your "surprise" features make me even more curious

QSportsEvent 0.0.7, aka. Stadio Olimpico di Roma edition, will be released tomorrow! Ok, all great products have names as well as version numbers for their releases, so I thought I'd follow in that tradition. The selection this time is made because Inter Milan won the Italian Cup at that venue yesterday 
One of the new features is that the UI will be somewhat 'user configurable'. In Qt, stylesheets can be applied to application widgets. These stylesheets can be read from a file and be changed in runtime. There will be a .qsportsevent/user folder where you can put your own matches.css, table.css, select.css and favourites.css files with the stylesheets to be used in those respective tabs of the application. Instructions as to exactly what and how you can use it can be found in the Qt documentation and tutorial. As an example, it should be possible for you to change the background image (your favourite team's stadium? a team picture? your girlfriend??) and the appearance of the 'matches' and 'table' tables.
Example:
EDIT: In the sample file, the full path is preceeded by a ':' character. You should NOT use it! It is only needed when the item is taken from a Qt resource file. For user customization you will take it directly from the file system, so you shouldn't use that prefix!
The other 'user configurable' feature is the rendering of the RSS feeds. You'll find this file in .qsportsevent/rss.xsl.
Find samples in the attachment. Please note that the default implementation has the same stylesheet for all tabs, so I only attach one example. To be able to upload files to TMO, they have to have an 'acceptable' extension, that's why I had to add .txt. You don't need that on the device.
Please note that upgrades to newer versions of QSportsEvent might delete your files that you store in these folders, so please make sure to keep backups of them in other locations!
Be creative! Share screenshots, xsl, css and image files on the forum! I'm more than willing to change the default ones that come with the application with better looking examples provided by the community!
Please note that this is very experimental! I have barely tested it myself! I include it mainly because I don't want to spend too much time on the appearance of the UI and prefer to concentrate on functionality. Besides, implementing the feature only took 15-20 minutes anyway... Ok, it took longer to write these instructions
I can't guarantee that this feature will remain in the app, but I don't see any reason why not...

I seem to remember that some community members reported that they did get the app to work on Diablo. Maybe the best approach is to find out from them what they might have done that others haven't, specifically in terms of qt and sqlite packages that they have installed on their devices.

Oh well... The quality assurance department says that QSportsEvent 0.0.7 - Stadio Olimpico di Roma is good to go one day early!
All you need to know is in the QSportsEvent wiki page. Some reminders though!
1. Uninstall any previous version.
2. You will loose all your favourites.
3. There is a new dependency on libqt4-xmlpatterns. See the wiki page for installation details.
4. This is still a beta! Expect issues, and please, report them!
5. This is still a beta! Features will change!
Enjoy!

In this post.Can you please post (again) the errors you are getting when you launch it from the terminal window? I'll add it to the Wiki and see if someone who reads it might have any clues...
Anyway, I just submitted 0.0.7 to Diablo Extras-Devel (NOT Fremantle (i.e., N900), for those who might be wondering...), so it should be there. I haven't done anything that would fix this problem though, but it's always best to test with the latest version.

Already installed - first impression:
You are THE MAN, Magnuslu !!!
Again great progress, even bigger than expected
Hope I can find some time for testing soon - especially the new livescores!!!
