Hi there ! I am afraid there is no pre packaged perl module for debian (if anyone knows this to be wrong, please let us know the name of the package :) ). I think it is possible to build things from sources this way so that perl can use the sword library on a debian box:
The sword library will be installed in /usr/local/sword The perl module in /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/perl/5.24.1/ mkdir -p ~/tmp cd ~/tmp wget http://www.crosswire.org/ftpmirror/pub/sword/source/v1.8/sword-1.8.1.tar.gz tar xvzf sword-1.8.1.tar.gz sudo mkdir /usr/local/sword #my regular user is debian, use whatever fits your environment. sudo chown debian /usr/local/sword sudo apt-get install g++ swig python-all-dev libtool automake autoconf libcurl4-openssl-dev libclucene-dev make python-virtualenv libicu-dev git #### from http://wiki.crosswire.org/Tutorial:Compiling_%26_Installing_SWORD#Debian_or_Ubuntu PKGS="subversion build-essential autotools-dev pkg-config libz-dev libclucene-dev libicu-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev" sudo apt-get install $PKGS -y #### cd sword-1.8.1 ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/sword --with-clucene --with-curl_sftp --enable-examples make make install make install_config #setting environment variable to use locally installed sword library cat >> ~/.bashrc <<EOF export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/sword/bin/ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/sword/lib export PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/sword/lib/pkgconfig export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/sword/include/sword" EOF . ~/.bashrc cd ~/tmp/sword-1.8.1/bindings/swig/package ./autogen.sh ./configure PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/sword/lib/pkgconfig CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/sword/include/" make perlswig PKG_CONFIG_PATH=/usr/local/sword/lib/pkgconfig CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/sword/include/" make perl_make cd perl #this directory may be different if you are not using a x86_64 version of debian. sudo mkdir -p /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu #here too, use your real regular user name instead of debian sudo chown debian /usr/local/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu make install ####################################### I checked perl was able to see the sword module with this simple script: debian@debian:~/tmp/sword-1.8.1/bindings/swig/package/perl$ cat test.pl #!/usr/bin/perl -w use Sword; foreach(@INC) {print $_;print "\n";} If it worked , it should generate no error message and show you all directories in @INC.
