sparse dictionary



With respect to the dictionary and thesaurus, something has changed
between Debian releases 9 and 11; it seems that a great many words are
missing.  The problem is not spelling; the spelling checker reports
"correctly spelled".
Synaptic no longer shows the several "gazeteer" entries, and I do not
find "moby thesaurus".
In default search method I have selected local host, and localhost for
the server.  I need the ability to use the system when not connected
to the Internet.
Is the current revision of the dictionary application unable to read
all of the old databases?
