Good idea. But stardict doesn't provide a Chinese-English dictionary by
default. I am not familiar with stardic. Does anyone volunteer for dump
the dictionary from stardic and convert that to stardict format(please I
really need help on this)?

I think I can update the stardict package first however it would go into
NEW queue for a while.

And I'd add these into stardict's debian/control:
Package: stardict
Provides: stardic
Replaces: stardic
Conflict: stardic

Package: stardic
Architecture: all
Depends: stardict
Description: transiational dummy package which can be safely removed
 Dummy package to upgrade to the new stardict package.

Would you mind to sponsor upload for this, Aníbal?

Best regards,

-Andrew
