Thanks, Karl!

after building and installing biblesync and sword (latest for both)
I modified the 4.0.7 spec file to identify as 4.1.0, and also edited
the lines for biblesync and sword to be the latest ones.

I built it and it seemed to build fine, so I installed the gtk3 binary
(we're speaking of Centos-7 here) and it installed, but I note there is no
desktop integration (no desktop icon) and I didn't find it in the menus,
either. As best as I can recall, earlier versions at least appeared in
the menu (under "Education"). can't say for sure whether I may or may
not not have set up the icon myself.

as for how well it works, I started it up and noticed that the doubled
arrows on book/chapter/verse are now back to normal, but didn't really
do anything beyond that, yet.

thanks again!
