Hum, maybe the script that generates the dictd-format from the XML format (ReVo original format is XML) is broken. What is the correct order ?

I am trying to figure that out now.

I don't understand why locales are necessary to allow dictd to read UTF-8 dictionnaries. It's possible to read UTF-8 mails on an ISO-8859 only system, so why dictd cannot do the same ? > Is this a common enough problem in Debian that a general solution > needs to be developed?

BTW, who is the upstream author of dictd ? Is there a CVS somewhere ? Mailing-list ?
