Current dictionaries-common package already provides info to STDERR during the first installation (and preconfiguration) if envvar DICT_COMMON_DEBUG is set. It is however only about the process of default dict selection, but if no preconfiguration is happenning, that info will not be shown. No info is currently shown for individual dicts install, but I can try adding some details about old and new choices if needed.
