Rene,
The dependencies are finally in place so this can be implemented.
To make things simpler for dictionary packagers, we are using a virtual
package and an unversioned path for the conversion tool so that dictionary
packagers don’t have to make modifications to their packages when the versions
of Qt change in Debian.
All you should need to do for most of the dictionaries is the following:
1. Build-depend on `convert-bdic`.
2. Use /usr/bin/convert-bdic to do the dictionary conversion.
3. Place the .bdic files in /usr/share/hunspell-bdic.
More detailed information can be found in the dictionary packager
documentation at:
file:///usr/share/doc/dictionaries-common-dev/dsdt-policy.html#hunspell-bdic
Regarding Aragonese, do you think upstream would be amenable to replacing the tab in their .aff file with spaces?
For Galician, a copy of the .aff file will need to be made during build time, the extra long lines removed, and then the .bdic built from that modified .aff.
For Hungarian and Ukrainian, a copy of the .aff files will need to be made during build time, the IGNORE commands removed, and then the .bdic files built from that modified .affs.
Thanks,
Soren
