Uhm, sorry - I don't know why I've thought it. It just build-depends from trans-de-en and builds the dict dictionary from the installed database. On the other hand I see no reason why this should not be done as multi-binary package from the trans-de-en source. If you file bugs agsinat dict-de-en the maintainer has to reassign them to trans-de-en and it really makes no sens. I try to provide a patch against trans-de-en and ask Roland if he might want to include this into his package.
Kind regards Andreas.
