Bug#251439: ITP: ydpdict -- Interface for the English-Polish Collins dictionary
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name: ydpdict Version : 0.62 Upstream Author : Wojtek Kaniewski [EMAIL PROTECTED] * URL : http://toxygen.net/ydpdict/ * License : GPLv2 Description : Interface for the English-Polish Collins dictionary This is an ncurses interface to the English-Polish/Polish-English Collins dictionary distributed by Young Digital Poland. It can also play the pronunciation samples if the CD is available. . This package is only the interface, it does not contain the dictionary files itself. To use it, you need a copy of the dictionary from YDP. There are some minor glitches for which I plan to provide a patch to the upstream author. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.4.24-1-k7 Locale: LANG=pl_PL, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL

If not, I don't think the package should be in main - it effectively depends on non-free material in order to function, hence it should be in contrib. Yes, of course it belongs to contrib, I forgot to mention that. Actually debian/control which I have written already contains Section: contrib/text.
