Hi Teus, I would like to summ this up, but I myself am still on a quite 'shaky ground' in Linux, as a seperate mail to the Xiphos list shows. :-) So, I suggest, that you try this out yourself and put it into the help file. Greetings Wolfgang Teus Benschop wrote: Hi Wolfgang, The crosswire personal repository you refer to seems to be more up to date than the repository that is maintained by SIL. What I mean is that new versions of bibledit make it faster into the crosswire repository. Therefore, yes, it seems a good idea to point users to this repository. If they use this repository, it seems it will become easier for them to update their version of bibledit. In case you'd like to write a few smple instructions for the users to follow, I can then add these instructions to the Ubuntu installation instructions. Teus.

On the bottom of the page on https://edge.launchpad.net/~pkgcrosswire/+archive/ppa there is also Show details bibledit - 3.7-1~karmic1 (changesfile) jmarsden 2009-05-13 Published Karmic Gnome All builds were built successfully. Show details bibledit - 3.7-1~jaunty1 (changesfile) jmarsden 2009-05-13 Published Jaunty Gnome All builds were built successfully. Show details bibledit - 3.7-1~intrepid1 (changesfile) jmarsden 2009-05-13 Published Intrepid Gnome All builds were built successfully. As those Bibledit updates would show up in Synaptics, would this be an advisable option for BE users to update through this repository? Greetings Wolfgang |
