Re: [Gnomesword-users] gnomesword newbie

Ubuntu currently has sword 1.5.9 in its repositories and gnomesword 2.1.7.
As someone who has tried to compile newer versions of gnomesword on a box
without internet access, I'll just say it isn't worth the hassle.

Lloyd and anyone else should be able to download gnomesword and sword
packages with their dependencies and install them offline on edgy and have a
recent version of gnomesword.
