Package: stardict
Severity: normal
Hi, Andrew Lee and Anthony Fok!
I use stardict, I like this dictionary very much, but there is a great
discomfort: at every new installation it is necessary to download the
dictionaries from the site http://stardict.sourceforge.net by hand and
to install them.
It would be nice if the deb-package included the dictionaries from this
site, however it is most likely impossible because mostly they will not
correspond to DFSG.
I have a proposal to you:
to modify the package thus it has configure and template scripts for
debconf, which would allow users to choose and install the dictionaries
automatically (dpkg-reconfigure).
I've written a small script (it is attached) which creates a list of
what to download and where from: according to the results of the work of
this script one may generate the menu for choosing). Some time later I
would be able to complete the work on this system [1].
However now I have to choose whether to make a fake package only for
automatisation of downloading the dictionaries for stardict or to work
further on the stardict package.
Here I need your agreement or disagreement about working on the stardict
package: in the first case you'll include the results of my work into
package and add me to the Uploaders group and in the second one I'll
make a retitle of this bug in ITP: staridct-dicts [1].
Please inform me what is your opinion on this subject.
Sincerely yours, Dmitry
