Not sure where to cut this quote, but anyway, Mandrake has rpm's too that "just work"...that is unless you're on a 64bit system. For some reason, bibletime doesn't like 64bit at the moment from what I understand so you sort of have to compile it. I personally don't use the rpm packages (and I wouldn't use the deb's either for the same reason) 'cause I use CVS/SVN for bibletime & sword since I like testing and contributing. -- David's Mailing List and Spam Receiver Keeping me (relatively) free of spam since 2003 _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel
