We had a default /etc/dict.conf for some time, but we've never shipped any dictionaries. This resulted in different errors. Therefore I've decided to leave it up to the packagers of the dictionaries to polulate /etc/dict.conf. See bug #135920 The client's previous default behavior was to consult "dict.org" and "alt0.dict.org" if no server was explicitly specified on its command line. I don't know why this was changed upstream, but the previous default can be restored by passing "--enable-dictorg" to the configure script. comment #2: you're right. I didn't notice this upstream change. dictd-1.9.15-4 will have this fix. |
Description of problem: The dict program complains "'dict.conf' doesn't specify any dict server". Reverting to dictd-1.9.7-8.i386.rpm resolves the problem. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): dictd-1.9.15-3 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. dict adequate 2. 3. Actual results: $ dict adequate 'dict.conf' doesn't specify any dict server Expected results: $ dict adequate 4 definitions found From The Collaborative International Dictionary of English v.0.48 [gcide]: Adequate \Ad"e*quate\, a. [L. adaequatus, p. p. of adaequare to make equal to; ad + aequare to make equal, aequus equal. See {Equal}.] [...etc] Additional info: Might need to include a default /etc/dict.conf for newer versions.
