I see that Debian now has up-to-date Sword and BibleTime packages. That's great, but the Xiphos package that was submitted didn't make it because of Lintian errors. I'm not able to look at it until some time in October, but it does seem a shame that there is only one frontend for Sword that is officially 'out there'. We're getting very close to the Ubuntu release date, and I am hoping that the Sword stuff will get into the Ubuntu repos before too long.



It looks from https://packages.qa.debian.org/x/xiphos.html that the Lintian errors are for version 3.1.5. The fact that errors would be found with 3.1.5 would not surprise anyone on this list, I suspect.

We need to have them look at the latest source. anyone know who to contact about that?

As a reminder, we have sword+xiphos+bibletime packages for Ubuntu 13.10 and 14.04 available at:

BTW, as 13.10 has passed out of support I don't intend to build further packages for it. If needed, I will build for 14.04.
