Package: dictd Version: 1.9.15-1 Severity: normal
If the same databases are installed using serpento or dictd as server, dictd refuses to find words with utf-8 characters in the databases. Example: The German word Befürworter should be found in debian-glossary.de or freedict deu-eng. Using a correctly working client dictd refuses to define the word: Jul 5 23:44:31 clara dictd[31289]: :T: avalon.bofh.ms DEFINE * "BefÃÂŒrworter" Jul 5 23:44:31 clara dictd[31289]: :N: avalon.bofh.ms * exact "BefÃÂŒrworter" Jul 5 23:44:31 clara dictd[31289]: :T: avalon.bofh.ms MATCH * . "BefÃÂŒrworter" Jul 5 23:44:31 clara dictd[31289]: :N: avalon.bofh.ms * . "BefÃÂŒrworter" (Sorry, if the pasted vovels are munged.) Serpento gives the correct answers on the request, if the same databases are installed. Words not containing utf-8 chars are found as far as I can see from the freedict dicts but not from all others. The Debian dictd files are available on debian-women and www.witch.westfalen.de/debian-women/dict/. On "la-sorciere.de" is serpento installed and can be asked for "Befürworter" or "WNPP".
