Sorry for the long delay, but I seem to have missed the bug report

Hmmm, the package description of ding 1.4-3 says:
Recommends: trans-de-en (>= 1.4) | translation-dictionary
Conflicts: trans-de-en (<< 1.4)
So if you only upgrade ding and not trans-de-en without recommends,
this will deinstall trans-de-en 1.3, which is somewhat intended.
ding does not depend on trans-de-en, because you may use some other
translation-dictionary (not everybody wants to translate between
English and German). Except this, it is possible that someone has a
dictionary installed locally without providing the pseudo-package
translation-dictionary, so I only recommend on this.
ding 1.4 conflicts with old 1.3 version of trans-de-en, because ding
1.4 uses UTF-8 while the old 1.3 version used iso-8859-1 charset.
This will cause trouble, so I configured a conflict on the old
version.
As a solution for your problem, you should think about using
aptitude --with-recommends, which should follow the Recommends entry:
# aptitude --with-recommends install ding

Does this solve your problem? Or do you have some good idea how to
change the dependencies to avoid this problem. As I said above, I
don't think that a dependency on trans-de-en 1.4 is a good idea.
Tschoeeee
