LMMS Does Not Launch Correctly Without Installing #1958

Description

@fundamental

Currently launching lmms from the build directory without installing results in a mostly broken setup. A fair number of plugins complain that they cannot be found and virtually all UI graphics missing. A user should not be forced to install the software (regardless to the fact that you can specify the install directory) in order for it to be functional.

Steps to replicate.

  1. get a system with no prior lmms installation
  2. clone and mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && make && ./lmms

Expected Result

Lmms to launch normally and to present the user with various dialogs concerning this being the first use of the program

Actual Results

Lots of warnings and windows looking like
Broken GUI
