True, but this 'somehow' is by typical use of apt and re-installing
OO.org packages, so it's possible that control scripts of some related
package contains dangerous code which broke dictionaries-common install.

I do not think any control script anywhere has code to remove that
script (that would be a serious bug). I tend to think you experienced some
sort of failure in your system. Have your partitions been nearly full
recently?
