Hello. I do not understand why there is no perl nor python module for the debian Sword package. Does any one knows why ?
Who exactly is the debian developper in charge of maintaining Sword for debian ? I looked for open bugs but did not find any related to perl or python, however i found this: https://tracker.debian.org/news/967514/sword-removed-from-testing/ ############## To: <sw...@packages.debian.org> Date: Sat, 23 Jun 2018 04:39:25 +0000 From: Debian testing watch <nore...@release.debian.org> Subject: sword REMOVED from testing FYI: The status of the sword source package in Debian's testing distribution has changed.
