sr#81625 want's to add 'sword', a bible study tool to openSUSE:Factory. While that is totally fine, the spec file %description contains stuff like:
+The SWORD Project is an effort to create an ever expanding software package for +research and study of God and His Word.
I have the feeling that openSUSE should take neutral stance, [...]
I have no problem with including religious content in Factory (as long as it isn't installed by default - that would be something different IMHO). However, I had to smile a bit about the package summary: +Summary: Framework for manipulating Bible texts ^^^^^^^^^^^^ Now _that_ might indeed offend some people. I'd s/manipulate/edit/ ;-) The full %description in the SR/spec is: +The SWORD Project is an effort to create an ever expanding software package for +research and study of God and His Word. + +The SWORD Bible Framework allows easy manipulation of Bible texts, commentaries, +lexicons, dictionaries, etc. Many frontends are build using this framework. +An installed module set may be shared between any frontend using the framework. Maybe the official upstream description would be better - it sounds more neutral IMHO. From http://www.crosswire.org/sword/ : | The SWORD Project is the CrossWire Bible Society's free Bible software project. | Its purpose is to create cross-platform open-source tools-- covered by the GNU | General Public License-- that allow programmers and Bible societies to write | new Bible software more quickly and easily.
