Thank your for your reply.
Indeed the order is detailed in the file INSTALL.
Never mind (I think installmgr should output an error, and I still don't understand why installmgr creates and uses ~/.sword/Installmgr, and is not able to create ~/.sword/mods.d...)

Installmgr attempts to install modules to your primary SWORD module folder. There is a priority order in which this folder is found. CWD is higher priority, the SWORD_PATH env variable, some other locations, and also location set in /etc/sword.conf. there's a readme somewhere with the lookup order. My guess is that it was using /etc/sword.conf and trying to install to /usr,/share/sword which you don't have permission without sudo.

Hope this helps.

    Hi all,

    I tried to install modules from command line (for first time).
    Finally I found in the wiki some samples and manage to install modules!

    But I think installmgr does not behave properly.
    If you run :
    rm -r ~/.sword
    echo yes | installmgr -init
    echo yes | installmgr -r CrossWire
    echo yes | installmgr -rl CrossWire
    echo yes | installmgr -ri CrossWire KJV
    It won't install KJV (try installmgr -l or diatheke) ! You will see no
    errors.
    You need to create ~/.sword/mods.d and set $SWORD_PATH to ~/.sword !
    In my opinion this is odd, installmgr should at least say "give me a
    directory in which I can work", output an error if mods.d does not
    exists and not download all the files...

    Moreover the first 3 commands does uses ~/.sword automatically and
    creates subdirectories automatically...

    I am running sword svn version.
    Did I miss something? Is this a normal behaviour?

    Regards,
    yvand
