[sword-devel] Downgrading eBible.org ftp repository service; upgrading https service

[David Haslam]

Hi Fred,

AFAICT, there's no LXX module under the language Κοινή Ἑλληνῐκή (aka Ancient Greek) in the eBible.org repo.

- What's the actual ModName of the one you tried to install?
- Under which language did Xiphos list it?

Best regards,

David

I've done that and everything looks as if I did it right, but when I attempt to install a module from eBible nothing is installed, or not that I can find, not even by perusing the filesystem under ~/.sword. I ran Xiphos from the commandline and did it again, but no error messages appeared.
