It would appear as though there is a problem with system paths - and
possibly lib paths as well. You might want to comb through the
/etc/profile and see if there's garbage left over from the previous
installation of Mozzie - same with checking your
~/home/yournamehere/.bashrc - modify as necessary; as well, you might
want to check your /etc/ld.so.conf to make sure that it's pointing to
the proper location of libraries - if you have to modify that particular
file, you're going to have to run "ldconfig" to rebuilt the lib path
cache.

Else, a trick would be to create a script in your ~/home/yournamehere/
directory calling the program and then change the link in the panel to
suit the new script (make sure you chmod +x scriptname prior to
attempting to run it).
