-if you pass the variable WK2=yes to the build script, the dependencies
-change slightly. instead of webkitgtk3, webkit2gtk and gtkhtml (v4) are
-required.
+xiphos version 4.2.1 requires sword v1.8.1-3 or higher
+and biblesync v2.0.1 or higher
-note: End program differences between webkit and webkit2 versions.
-webkit:
- studypad is missing the image for the "bold" text button (but it works)
- reported not to work with current
-webkit2:
- studypad has an "add emoticon" button, but the images included are not
-found, so an empty imagebox is added in the text if you try to add an icon.
- a few warnings shown on compile (but seems to work just fine).
- try this one for current. if it works, let me know, and I might change
- the default to WK2 :-).
-
-For both versions, there is an issue where if the previewer is in the sidebar,
-text is offset to the left, so you can't see the first 2 characters of each
-line. This can be fixed by making the sidebar a little bit wider.
-
-Note. xiphos version 4.1.0 requires sword v1.8 or higher
-and biblesync v1.2 or higher
+xiphos needs a version of cmake 3.11 or higher. A private version is
+included in the slackbuild to enable xiphos to be built. If you want to
+use a different cmake to that included here, pass CMVERSION with the
+version you need (and make sure that the source tar.gz is available)
+There are a few new dependencies as the documentation is now created by
+the build process rather than shipped preprocessed in the source.
