This was answered in the affirmative at the start of this thread.

Only the CrossWire repos misbehave in PocketSword.

The non-CrossWire repos are still perfectly fine as regards modules download.

Btw.  All the IBT modules even come installed with a Lucene search index that’s 
inside the download. They don’t need to invoke the unofficial method of 
post-loading a separate Index.
