# Upstream keeps the module files unversioned so it is only the use of
# mirroring that has prevented us from seeing regular hash mismatches
# - and it is not clear for many of the modules whether we are allowed
# to mirror them or not. A convoluted and fragile process has been
# required to detect new modules and versions, and the request for a
# Repology-friendly upstream endpoint appears to have stalled.
# Please switch to managing SWORD modules on a per-user basis, using
# tools bundled with app-text/sword (see e.g.
#
https://wiki.crosswire.org/SWORD_Module_Source_Discovery_and_Module_Updating)
# or appropriate functionality in GUI front-end software.
# Removal in 30 days. Bug #892069.
