The current version in their repository is 2.2.3-1build2. Is that the sort of thing that you're referring to? > > I don't know about BibleTime builds, but GnomeSword builds for Ubuntu > (including latest Sword 1.5.11 libs to support GS) can be found here: For Bibletime the latest in the Ubuntu repos is 1.6.4.dfsg-0ubuntu3. I believe the dfsg indicates that there was a problem with some file in the original source tarball - such as a licensing issue. Sword, meanwhile, languishes back at 1.5.9. If there are already builds for Ubuntu available both of 2.3.x of Gnomesword and 1.5.11 for sword and 1.6.5.1 of Bibletime, have the maintainers attempted to get these into the official Ubuntu repositories or not? --Greg > > http://dominique.corbex.net/gnomesword/ > > _______________________________________________ > sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org > http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel > Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page > _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
