1 # Upstream keeps the module files unversioned so it is only the use of
2 # mirroring that has prevented us from seeing regular hash mismatches
3 # - and it is not clear for many of the modules whether we are allowed
4 # to mirror them or not. A convoluted and fragile process has been
5 # required to detect new modules and versions, and the request for a
6 # Repology-friendly upstream endpoint appears to have stalled.
7 # Please switch to managing SWORD modules on a per-user basis, using
8 # tools bundled with app-text/sword (see e.g.
9 #
10 https://wiki.crosswire.org/SWORD_Module_Source_Discovery_and_Module_Updating)
11 # or appropriate functionality in GUI front-end software.
12 # Removal in 30 days. Bug #892069.
