[Bug 684510] Re: Remove sword-language-packs from Ubuntu

[Micah Gersten]

It seems that all the packages that the generated packages depended on
were dropped for Lucid.  There is one issue and that there's an rdepend
left on ichthux-live.  I'm subscribing the maintainer for comment and
unsubscribing ubuntu-sponsors.

** Changed in: sword-language-packs (Ubuntu)

Title:
  Remove sword-language-packs from Ubuntu

Status in “sword-language-packs” package in Ubuntu:
  Incomplete

Bug description:
  This is a meta-package "generator" which should install sword-text-* packages by language.

1) it's not in Debian
2) It's buggy Bug #635935 Bug #614151
3) Current https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/sword maintainers in Debian/Ubuntu https://launchpad.net/~pkgcrosswire do not see a point of this package, do not want to take up it's maintenance and believe it's obsolete.
4) Current Sword frontends: Xiphos (Gtk) and BibleTime (KDE) support installing sword-text-* from updated Crosswire repositories. Current sword-text-* bibles have well known names and are easily discoverable.
