Thank you very much for your bug report. Gnomesword is no longer developed. It has been renamed into Xiphos see xiphos.org
I believe the issue has been fixed upstream It is Ubuntu policy not to introduce new packages into old releases. Crosswire packaging team is working on updating Sword, Xiphos, Bibletime and Bibledit in Debian and Karmic. But additionally we provide our packages for older releases. You can try our packages from the PPA https://edge.launchpad.net/~pkgcrosswire/+archive/ppa We have Hardy - Karmic packages there. Please comment on this bug if you are still experiencing this issue with the Xiphos package from the PPA. -- gnomesword2 dictionaries not functioning https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/164152 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
