Package: dict
Version: 1.10.10.dfsg-1
Severity: normal

An excerpt from the output of [dict foo]:

"""
     When `foo' is used in connection with `bar' it has generally traced
  to
     the WWII-era Army slang acronym {FUBAR} (`Fucked Up Beyond All
  Repair'
     or `Fucked Up Beyond All Recognition'), later modified to {foobar}.
"""

It appears that lines are being wrapped oddly; this makes bogus the
coloration done by the colorit program also (since it approximates and
figures the wrapped lines must be new word entries).  I can't tell
whether this is the dict program doing this, or dictd, or whether this
is from the Jargon File dictionary files themselves; no other
dictionary files appear to display this behavior, but that may just be
because those don't trip over some new line-wrapping behavior in one
of the bits of dict software.

COLUMNS in my xterm is set to 132, which should be the actual number
of columns there; other programs (such as Mutt) that presumably get
the terminal width using ioctls or environment variables get it right,
so if dict is trying to wrap to my terminal width, it may be doing
something wrong.

Reporting against dict for now, since it seems the most likely
candidate; reassign as necessary.
