Just a mechanical point. If you add Obsoletes=ASV, then it rules out CrossWire from updating it.

Since that time, there have been numerous typo corrections and corrections to conform to the printed master copy, based on emailed feedback diligently compared to the master copy, public errata on the web (because most ASVs in electronic format came from the same scan), and a detailed Genesis-to-Revelation proofreading by Dale and cross-checked by myself. While there were only a few differences that I would consider theologically significant, there were literally hundreds of corrections made.

The ASV module on the main crosswire repository could be replaced with the eBible.org copy or removed. I'll add on "Obsoletes=ASV" line to the engASV1901.conf file with the next rebuild.
