The dictd package introduced new or modified debconf templates. This is the perfect moment for a review to help the package maintainer following the general suggested writing style and track down typos and errors in the use of English language. If someone wants to pick up this review, please answer to this mail, in the mailing list, with an [ITR] (Intent To Review) label. The templates file is attached. To propose the file you reviewed for peer review, please send a [RFR] (Request For Review) mail with the reviewed file attached...then a few days later, when no more contributions come, a summary mail with a [LCFC] (Last Chance For Comments) label. Finally, after no more comments coming to the LCFC mail, you can send the reviewed templates file as a bug report against the package. Then, please notify the list with a last mail using a [BTS] label with the bug number. Helping the package maintainer to deal with induced translation updates at that moment will be nice. If you're not comfortable with that part of the process, please hand it off to a translator. --

Package: dictd
Architecture: any
Description: Dictionary Server
dictd is a TCP based server that allows a client to access dictionary
definitions from a set of natural language dictionary databases.
.
Many dictionary databases have been packaged for Debian. They are
discussed in more detail in the file
/usr/share/doc/dictd/README.Debian.gz
.
Either dict-gcide or dict-wn is essential for a useful English
language dictionary server. It is strongly recommended that both be
installed. If you are interested in computer terminology, it is
recommended that one or more of dict-jargon, dict-foldoc, and
dict-vera also be installed.
.
The client program, dict, is packaged in dict*.deb If you are
running a server, you will want the client for all machines in your
network, and for testing server operations.

Description: Dictionary Client
dict is the client that queries the dictd server. Since it is TCP
based, it can access servers on the local host, on a local network,
or on the Internet.
.
The DICT Development Group maintains several public servers which can
be accessed from any machine connected to the Internet. The default
configuration is to query one of these servers first, but this may be
changed in the configuration file /etc/dictd/dict.conf.
.
Queries may be customized by numerous command line options, including
specifying the database(s) to be queried and the search strategy to
be used.
.
dict includes dictl, which simplifies using utf-8 encoded dictionaries
with terminals that do not support utf-8.

Package: dictzip
Architecture: any
Description: Compression utility for dictionary databases
dictzip compresses files using the gzip(1) algorithm (LZ77) in a
manner which is completely compatible with the gzip file format. An
extension to the gzip file format allows for random access to chunks
of about 57kb without the overhead of decompressing the entire file.
.
This package also includes dictunzip to decompress dictzipped files
and dictzcat for viewing dictzipped files.

Package: dictfmt
Section: utils
Architecture: any
Description: Utility to format a file for use by the dictd server
dictfmt converts an input file to a dictionary database that conforms
to the DICT protocol, and creates a corresponding index file.
.
This package also includes dictunformat which creates a raw database
from dictionary index and a dictionary database.
