Bug Description

Upstream had a new major release, which also fixed many bugs.

There were many fixes in compatibility with GTK3, one major bug with GTK3.14 was that the current version is unable to open preferences. Upstream would greatly appreciate the updated release in Ubuntu.

xiphos 4.0.0 complete changelog:
 * fixed gtk3 prefs->parallel->module selector geometry & filling.
 * fixed gtk3.14 failure to display prefs (gtk3 blows chunks).
 * added Free{Sans,Serif} fonts to the win32 installer.
 * gtkhtml: its very last vestiges are truly gone, gone, gone.
 * av11n: navbar blanked for unavailable content.
 * av11n: unavailable content in module pane results in
   "This module has no content at this point."
 * av11n: re-worked navbar filling, now takes all books offered by
   sword, no conditional on whether 1:1 content exists.
 * fixed "dump personal commentary" replacing "." with "..+".
 * avoided NTFS glitch by not making settings backup file.
 * fixed mod.mgr button bobble on expand/collapse of module tree
   using a timer to reject too-soon calls (esp 1st-time user).
 * add --chatty configure flag to enable GS_* trace printfs.
 * changed all GS_* print macros to XI_*.
 * countless accommodations to gtk3.14 peculiarities.
 * fixed crash caused by null ptr in redisplay_to_realign().
 * unavailable content in 1-verse parallel: "no content" message.
 * save main window internal geometry on quit.
 * added support for OSISXlit and OSISEnum.

 * feat.req#133 + bug#508: alternate versification.
   => creating test version 3.9.x for public review.
 * bug#513: avoid "set insensitive" on "X" of tab being destroyed.
 * put Feature=NoParagraphs to use.
 * preserve the old CipherKey string when updating a module.
 * feat.req#93: add default CSS for all displays.
   caveat emptor. mis-use by the user will not be our fault.

 * feat.req#110+111: manual updates.
 * update CSS to find AbsoluteDataPath and include CSS by reference.
 * add verse list load from history.
 * clean up defunct bits in settings.h.
 * module-specific CSS support, using conf directive
   "PreferredCSSXHTML=style.css", naming a file in DataPath dir.
 * biblesync 1.1.0 interface: speakerkey is now a 1st-class param.
 * add history pre-load from verse list.

G'day!

I'm one of the developers of Xiphos, and if this can be merged into 15.04, that would be great for users because there are a few fixes to make Xiphos run better with GTK 3.14. The main one is the preferences would not open in Xiphos 3.2.2 on a system with GTK 3.14. Xiphos 4.0.0 fixed that.
