I am encountering what is possibly the same bug here. I will just
provide the error message rather than making up a theory of why it
happens.
When I run `searx-run`, I get this error:
```
Traceback (most recent call last):

raise Exception('settings.yml not found')
Exception: settings.yml not found
```
I also tried copying the default settings.yml to the folder I run searx
in, like this:
```
7z x /usr/share/doc/searx/examples/settings.yml.gz
```
but I get the same error.
