I would say try downloading the sword cvs thats all I'm doing. If for some 
reason the sword cvs will not compile on his system then we can better 
determine were the error is coming from. When I was using mandrake 7.2 I 
never had a problem with sword compileing but bibiletime gave me problems 
occasionally.

also it would help to know the exact error that way I can track down if its a 
problem with the spec file or with sword.

one other thing these were compiled on mandrake 8.0 but that should not 
affect the source rpm.
