Would someone try to compile irenaeus for me?
 

Was wondering if someone would try to compile irenaeus for me? It is a command line ncurses Bible Reader that is used for the Sword Project.

I tried getting this on my Ubuntu system about a year ago but could not get it to run, don't remember why. But if someone could take a look at this and see if it they could compile it and get it to run on the N800 I would appreciate it.

I am taking a look at it, but. The configure script fails saying gcc is not useable. For some strange reason, there is also a Makefile, so I tried to make it. The compile fails looking so swmgr.h, I looked this up and it is SWORD, another linux bible reader program, so I am compiling sword right now.

It looks like the modules are all just data so you can download the ones you want to use.

Sword is taking long time to compile, I will let you know what happens...

Cool, Thanks for attempting this. This is over 6 years old so if it starts giving too many errors you don't have worry about it, unless you want to.

The different Bible modules are downloaded separately and you can just download the ones you want to use.

I could not get it to compile,someone a little better with code may be able to figure out the problem. They can use my sword.tar as a dep, so they dont have to start from scratch

Well sword 1.5.10 compiled, If you can find some other command line/ncurses frontend I will give it a try.

Sword has tools to search the modules, just not sure how it all works, it may be useable to you as is.

cd /
tar xvf /path/to/SWORD.tgz

tools are all in /usr/local/bin

You may need to add it to your path on the command line
export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin
also
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

You will have to download your own modules and place them in
/usr/local/share/sword


Let me know ?
good luck

Thanks for providing the compiled sword 1.5.1, just clancing through it I noticed "diatheke". I remember reading a little bit about this, I think being a frontend. I'm going to have to do some more research and refreshing to see if it's something usable or not.

I will let you know if I find anything out.

Thanks Again.

Just an FYI I took the SWORD.tgz and put it in / directory on the Nokia and untarred it as root and I was able to run Diatheke and it worked. Diatheke is the command line frontend for Sword. So This works quite well for me. I really like command line programs and Diatheke seems to have a few usefull options. I would still like to have a nice Graphical Bible Reader but this woks well for me.

Hi there.

I put sword 1.5.9 in the extras repository for os 2007 a couple of monthes ago (i use it for a simple pygtk bible reader : https://garage.maemo.org/projects/rapier/)

I do not plan to put sword 1.5.10 for os2007, but i'll most probably push it on the os2008 extra repository. All i know is it compiled fine on my scratchbox.
