Package: dict
Version: 1.9.15-1
Severity: wishlist

dict has recently started returning translations into various languages.
While this is cool, it's not what I've come to expect from dict and is
generally useless to me when I want to know what a word means.  (It
helps that these entries are at the end, so I can stop reading when I
see them, but they are still distracting.)  The cause is the addition of
translation dictionaries to dict.org, and there doesn't appear to be a
straight-forward way to leave this class of dictionaries out of
searches.  I will email [EMAIL PROTECTED] about this, but I wanted to
file a Debian bug for tracking and because perhaps the Debian package
can work around the problem.
