Hello from Australia Sword developers,

I too have just updated to Mandrake 9.0 and believe that my problems are
just the same as Fred outlined below.

I know you are all working hard on Sword, so I don't want to hassle
anyone.  Therefore could someone give me a rough guess as to when a GCC
3.2 compilable version of Sword and Bibletime might be available.

thanks
in Christ

    I just installed Mandrake 9.0 (final), which has GCC 3.2.  Sword 
    compiled fine, but neither BibleTime or GnomeSword would compile.  I 
    plan to volunteer to set up RPMs for Mandrake 9.0 for Sword, BibleTime 
    and GnomeSword as soon as they work  ;-)  and post them on MandrakeClub. 
      Maybe they will become a part of the next official release of Mandrake?
    
    I already had installed all three on Yellow Dog Linux, which also uses 
    KDE3 but uses the older GCC 2.95 compiler.
    
    So it seems like neither GnomeSword or BibleTime have been updated.  I 
    joined the GnomeSword mailling list and inquired about this, but haven't 
    heard back yet.  No response from the Bibletime mailing list 
    subscription as of yet (it's been one day).
    
    Regards,
    
    Fred
