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. --

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. Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, netbase, adduser, dictzip (>= ${source:Upstream-Version}), lsb-base (>= 3.1), ucf (>= 3), update-inetd Recommends: dict | dict-client Suggests: dict-gcide | dictd-dictionary, dict-wn, dict-jargon, dict-foldoc Provides: dict-server Conflicts: dict-server Package: dict Architecture: any 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. Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, netbase, recode Recommends: m4, gawk Suggests: dictd | dict-server Provides: dict-client 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. Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} Replaces: dictd (<< 1.7.1-1) 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. Depends: ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends}, gawk Recommends: dictzip
