Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-utils
gnome-dictionary > edit > preferences: Add new dictionary source: transport: dictionary server hostname: localhost port: 2628 Click Add: new entry accepted, but when opened again, it shows "dict.org" as a hostname, instead of localhost. Same thing happens when using 127.0.0.1 for example. When adding, I got following warning on the terminal: ** (gnome-dictionary:5967): WARNING **: Invalid transport It seems that source was saved just right, gnome-dictionary just won't use it: > cat .gnome2/gnome-dictionary/source-1169296563-5771.desktop [Dictionary Source] Name=source-1169296563-5771 Description=local Transport=dictd Hostname=localhost Port=2628 I have dictd working ok from shell, the following for example works just fine: dictl -h localhost -p 2628 test Dapper did not have this problem. ** Affects: gnome-utils (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- gnome-dictionary won't use dictd at localhost https://launchpad.net/bugs/80725 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
