And subsequently dropped, due to failure to compile with gcc-4.7:

sword (1.6.2+dfsg-4) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Matthias Klose ]
  * Fix build failure in installed header file with GCC 4.7.
    Addresses: #667387.

  [ Dmitrijs Ledkovs ]
  * Remove python-sword swig bindings. Loads of build-time warnings (4.6)
    and errors (4.7) and the resulting module was reported not to
    work. Should be readded if/when it can be build with gcc 4.7 without
    errors. (Closes: #667387)
